2. Graduate
School Scholarships for Summer Semester
Where departments do not have discretionary funds to support
scholarships for tuition or fees for the summer semester, the Graduate
School has set aside additional scholarship support for a limited number of
awards for graduate students directly impacted by the tornado. Department
heads should email the Dean of the Graduate School with the following:
- Confirmation
that the department does not have scholarship funds available
- Name and CWID of the student they wish to nominate for a summer
scholarship
- Brief statement of the circumstances why the student is deserving of
support and how the disaster has impacted them.
Awards may be made
at the dean’s complete discretion.
3. Graduate
School Scholarships for Needy Students
In instances where departmental support and funding from the Acts of
Kindness Program still result in a serious unmet need, the dean of the
Graduate School will review nominations from department heads for graduate
students directly impacted by the tornado and who have justifiable emergency
short-term financial need which is not covered by any other UA, local, or
federal assistance. Please email the Dean of the Graduate School with the
student’s name and CWID and a statement of the student’s situation and how
the tornado has impacted him or her. Include a description of the financial
need.
Awards may be made
at the dean’s complete discretion.
