The student member scholarship is open to current, full-time undergraduate students, who are IFDA student members that have completed four design related courses.

Taylor said that she was awarded this scholarship based on an essay, design work examples, recommendation letters and her resume. She also said that the program’s director, Beth Miller, Ph.D., encouraged her to apply.
