18.3 Alumni Heritage Graduate Scholarship

Threefold Purpose:

  1. To recruit children and grandchildren of graduates of The University of Alabama.

  2. To send a clear signal to our graduates that "we want your children."

  3. To provide a tangible Alumni Association membership benefit for UA graduates.

Guidelines and requirements for this program:

  1. One time only (non-renewable) scholarship for first-year graduate students who are Alabama residents and who are children or grandchildren of a University of Alabama graduate.  The scholarship is for the student's first term of graduate enrollment.

  2. Parent or grandparent must be a degree holder (undergraduate, graduate, or law degree) from The University of Alabama.

  3. The qualifying parent or grandparent must be an active member of the National Alumni Association for three of the past five years. (Parent or grandparent cannot write check for all three years in one year.)

  4. The award will be equal to $500 towards the cost of in-state tuition of graduate level course work. (Subject to a maximum of actual in-state tuition not covered by other awards, whichever is lower).

  5. The student must be admitted to a graduate degree program at UA and may be enrolled part-time or full-time. Please note: students admitted to the Graduate School through special program such as the University Scholars Program or any Honor Program will be considered undergraduates for the purpose of this scholarship until the bachelor's degree is awarded.
