Study Away Summer Scholarship

Are you enrolled in the Honors Pathway Program within the Pavlis Honors College? Have you taken or are you currently taking HON 2150? Will you be engaged in a study away activity with a strong community component this summer? Apply for a summer scholarship to support your “study away” endeavors.

What is study away?

Study away is an experience off-campus that is tied into your curriculum. For this scholarship, this experience must also have a strong community engagement component. Students who engage in one of the following during summer 2019 are invited to apply for this scholarship:

  • A study abroad program for credit lasting at least 4 weeks.
  • Community projects, volunteering, or research for your honors curriculum (honors immersion, project, or leadership/mentorship must be approved before scholarship is awarded). This experience could be local to global, as long as there is a strong community component.

How much is the scholarship?

Up to $2,000 per student for summer support of study away.
