Adult and Teen DolphinLab Scholarship Opportunities
Scholarships Available for All About Dolphins and Teen Basic DolphinLabs
We know there are many adults and teens whose interest and passion for improving the lives of marine mammals both in human care and in the wild exceeds their bank accounts. We are excited to announce that, through the generosity of a DRC Donor, the Ariel Aboody Guterman Memorial All About Dolphins DolphinLab Scholarship, and the Ariel Aboody Guterman Memorial Teen Basic DolphinLab Scholarship were created.
Ariel was a generous spirit with a deep love for animals, and a very special connection with dolphins since she was a little girl. She would want to share the amazing experiences she had at DRC with others. Dolphins are such beautiful and intelligent creatures who deserve our care and protection. We know Ariel is smiling down on them always.
Each scholarship amount is $2,100.00 ($1,600.00 towards tuition + $500.00 towards travel/lodging). The scholarship awards are based on the greatest financial need and highest motivation to share knowledge acquired in the program for the benefit of marine mammals around the world.

The applicant must also complete and submit the All About Dolphins DolphinLab or Teen Basic DolphinLab online application available on Dolphin Research Center’s website when enrollment opens. We cannot consider an applicant as a Scholarship recipient without receiving the online application. Please note: If the applicant enrolls in more than one Adult or Teen DolphinLab within the same season and is awarded the Scholarship, the Scholarship is applied to only All About Dolphins or Teen Basic DolphinLab.
