The PAVE Global Student Aid Program provides financial assistance to college students worldwide who are experiencing economic hardship while pursuing degrees in design-related fields. This includes students studying retail design, interior design, architecture, visual merchandising, industrial design, UX/UI design, graphic design, product design, and similar disciplines that prepare them for careers shaping consumer environments. These grants can help offset essential living and educational expenses including food, housing, tuition, textbooks, health insurance, medical care, utilities, and transportation. Applicants must also submit a work sample, highlighting their most recent design work. It must be individual work, and cannot be a group project. Applicants must also submit one professional reference, can be a professor, faculty member, or an employer (including internship supervisors). References cannot be friends or family members.
