John Andrews Memorial Worldcon Scholarship

The late John Andrews was one of the founding members of OryCon and OSFCI. Without his efforts, it is quite possible that neither would exist today. He was also very active in and devoted to Worldcon.

In his memory, OSFCI provides a scholarship to send one person to Worldcon every year. The scholarship comprises a membership for the Convention and a grant of $500.

In order to be eligible, an applicant must have been active in OSFCI sponsored functions for at least 2 years, and may not have attended a Worldcon for at least 5 years.

Applications for the scholarship to the 2012 Worldcon, which will be held in Chicago August 30-September 3, 2012, must be received by January 15th, 2012. The recipient will be announced no later than February 15th, hopefully at the OSFCI Annual General Meeting, scheduled for Monday February 6, 2012.

To apply, please complete the application form:

and email it to scholarship@osfci.org or send it by US Mail to:

PO Box 5703
