University Community Scholarship Fund arrow

Through generous donations from members of our own UNH and UNHM communities, the ninth University Community Scholarship will be awarded in April. This year’s award is approximately $4,500. The size of the endowment which supports the scholarship is now $127,140. We can all take pride in how successful we have been in building this endowment.

This scholarship, which reflects the commitment and dedication of all members of the University community, will be awarded to a UNH-Durham or a UNH-Manchester student. This is your opportunity to nominate a deserving undergraduate or graduate student or, if you are a student, to apply for the scholarship award. The application is available here. Please fill it out carefully, and note the deadlines and instructions.

Awards are based on academic merit and community involvement. The selection committee is particularly interested in community involvement beyond paid employment and efforts on behalf of academic requirements. The award may be renewed for up to four years, however, the student must reapply each year. The selection committee includes a faculty member, a PAT staff member, an Operating Staff member, an Extension Educator and a principal administrator.

Our sincere thanks to all members of the University community who committed their time, energy, and financial resources in support of this scholarship effort. We continue to strive toward our goal of 100 percent participation from members of the university community. If you have not yet made your gift to the Fund, it’s not too late! You may send your gift via campus or U.S. mail to the University Community Scholarship Fund, c/o UNH Foundation, Elliott Alumni Center, Durham, NH, 03824-1987, or make your gift online at www.foundation.unh.edu.
