  • have a minimum cumulative U of A grade point average of 3.00
  • be a full-time undergraduate at the sophomore, junior or senior level at the time they receive the award

Preference for this scholarship is given to applicants with financial need and students who are not currently enrolled in the Honors College. 

The research scholarship shall be used to directly support the student's research project. The recipient will also be required to write a report at the conclusion of their research project and provide a copy to be shared with the scholarship benefactor as part of their annual stewardship report.
