Volunteer Leaders' Scholarships

The Office of Student Governance and Organizations offers scholarships to recognize and reward competent and reliable student leaders involved in Constituency Councils, Ambassadors, FLOC, Student Congress, and the Graduate Student Senate.  Up to twelve scholarships across two levels may be awarded annually.  All applicants must be in good standing with the university and have completed at least one semester of involvement in the level for which they are applying.  Please be aware if you apply for more than one level, you will only be awarded one scholarship if you are a recipient. Because this is scholarship money to be applied to your next semester, graduating seniors* or students transferring to another school are not eligible.
