Undergraduate Student Scholarships and Awards
Scholarships and Awards
Undergraduate scholarships and awards play a crucial role in supporting students pursuing degrees within the College of Arts and Sciences. These financial aids are designed to recognize academic excellence, leadership, and community involvement, offering both merit-based and need-based awards to eligible students.
The Knowles Teaching Fellows Program is an intensive and cohesive, five-year program that supports early-career, high school mathematics and science teachers in their efforts to develop teaching expertise and lead from the classroom.
A monetary award presented only when a senior majoring in mathematics has, in the opinion of the department, unusual ability in the area.
