We strive to support students from our community who have their sights set on protecting Wellfleet’s historic shellfishing industry. To date, WOA has awarded over $160,000 in scholarships.

Every year, WOA awards a $15,000 scholarship to a graduate of our local Nauset Regional High School who plans to attend college and major in Marine Sciences. The scholarship is paid out in annual installments over the course of 4-years with recipients required to maintain a grade point average of 2.5 or better.

Nauset students interested in applying should speak with their guidance counselor.
