Find One — Fund One: 2023 ASOR Scholarships and Grants
ASOR plans to celebrate our 123rd year (2023) by awarding more than $223,000 in fellowships, scholarships, and grants! This extraordinary commitment to our members has been made possible by you, our members and donors, who have established endowments or made annual contributions to these programs.

We invite you to FIND ONE (a scholarship, fellowship, or grant) or to help FUND ONE (designated gifts to enable us to award even more, or unrestricted gifts to help with the costs of administering and distributing the awards).
ASOR plans to make four types of awards:
- Scholarships for Fieldwork Participation ($86,000)
- Grants for Archaeological Projects ($92,000)
- Research Fellowships for Members ($32,000)
- Membership & Annual Meeting Scholarships (at least $20,000—we need more donations)
The deadline to apply for fieldwork scholarships and grants is a little over a month away (February 15 for scholarships, February 28 for grants). We invite you to apply and to share the word through your social media and other networks (please share this post).

ASOR is able to provide these scholarships with the partnership of you, our many members and donors. You are enabling ASOR to establish new scholarships and grants through endowed funds, but your annual support (i.e., gifts this year) will allow ASOR to send more eager students and early-career scholars into the field. Please support archaeology’s next generation by making a gift today.
Because of the ongoing pandemic, your gifts are especially needed this year (2023) to fund membership and annual meeting scholarships. Your gifts to the Annual Fund (unrestricted) help defray the costs of administering and distributing the growing number of scholarships and grants. You may also make a designated gift by choosing any category from the drop-down menu on the donations module.
Please spread the word and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions (e-mail or call [703-789-9233]).
