Some Student Affairs Scholarships Have Extended Application Deadlines to April 1

The Division of Student Affairs has several scholarships and awards that are still open and available for U of A students to apply. 

The Henry Woods Student Leadership Award is presented to two undergraduate students who are graduating seniors (one female and one male) and who have demonstrated remarkable leadership during their time on campus. Students should be graduating in May, August or December 2021. 

The Mason McWatters Memorial Scholarship is a one-year, non-renewable scholarship for students of federal recognized tribes indigenous to the United States, including the Quapaw Tribe. 

Students who have secured an unpaid or paid internship can apply for the UA Career Development Center Unpaid Internship Scholarship. This award will help students pay for additional living expenses that may not be covered by an internship, whether paid or unpaid.

The Veterans Resource and Information Center Home for Dinner Scholarship is for veterans of U.S. military, or those currently on active duty or members of the National Guard/Reserves. The Home For Dinner organization provides scholarships to these students to help supplement deficiencies in financial aid.

Students can find out more information and links to apply for these scholarships on the Division of Student Affairs Scholarship website. Applications close April 1 for these scholarships, with the exception of the Unpaid Internship Scholarship, which closes on April 16.
