The 2012 Erasmus Circle Scholarship Application process is NOW CLOSED
ERASMUS CIRCLE MERIT BASED UNDERGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP
 

The scholarship program was developed by the Dean’s Advisory Board of the College of Education to create new funding support for outstanding students in education and related fields. The scholarship is funded by generous gifts by College of Education Erasmus Circle Patrons and Erasmus Circle Members.
Erasmus Circle Scholars are outstanding students who show promise in their area of study, many of whom have made contributions to their communities, the College of Education, and the University of Arizona.
 
Criteria:
Students must be in enrolled full time (12 credits) for the upcoming fall 2012 semester in a College of Education undergraduate bachelor's degree program. They must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better in addition to making continued progress towards degree completion.
Preference is given to students who exhibit one or more of the following:

1. Students who have overcome particular challenges and have shown perseverance and motivation to complete their undergraduate studies.

2. Students who possess attributes and experiences and who have brought a diverse or unique perspective which have benefited their peers and others in their community, college, and the university.

3. Students that come from a geographic location that allows them to bring a diverse perspective to their program of study and would allow them to serve in an area that is under-served by the college and or the university.

4. Students who have demonstrated leadership ability on or off campus.

Recipients are expected to be available to attend two scholarship appreciation events during the academic year.
Previous Erasmus Circle Undergraduate Scholars are not eligible for consideration.
