DroneCamp Scholarship Program

The DroneCamp Scholarship Program offers financial support to students, employees from non-profits, and individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds who have a compelling need for the training but lack resources to participate. Scholarship support covers the full or half cost of the registration fee. Travel, accommodation, and other costs are the responsibility of the participant.

In 2026, limited funds are available to support the following groups:

  • Students and staff of CSUMB
  • Employees of UC ANR
  • California Tribes
  • Veterans
  • Individuals from disadvantaged and under-represented backgrounds

Application Process

Click on the link below to apply. Applications will close when all scholarships have been awarded (so apply sooner than later!). The final deadline for UC ANR employees is Monday June 1, and for all other applicants on Monday June 29, 2026.

After You Apply

The committee will review submitted applications on a rolling basis. All applicants will be notified latest by July 1, 2026.

Scholarship applicants who require a scholarship to attend should please wait until you receive your award notification before registering for DroneCamp. We have reserved spots for scholarship recipients, and don’t want to take spots away from those who aren’t applying for a scholarship.

Please contact info@dronecampca.org for any questions.
