Attention HC Students,
We are excited to announce that applications are now open for Alumni-Funded Scholarships for Continuing Students.
Made possible through the generosity of HC alumni, these four awards are designed to support continuing Honors students as they progress toward graduation. This spring, we will award:
- Stefanie Shields Frank Honors College Scholarship – $2,500

Students who complete the application will automatically be considered for all scholarships for which they are eligible. Awards will be disbursed in two equal payments across the Fall and Spring semesters.
To be eligible, you must:
- Be enrolled as an Honors College student during Fall 2026 and Spring 2027
- Be in good standing in the Honors College with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.3 and demonstration of ongoing progress in HON requirements
- Demonstrate financial need through the FAFSA or Alternative Need Form
- Submit required essays and materials through the application form
In addition to sharing your academic goals and Honors experience, the application invites reflection on resilience, leadership, and service. Applicants will also be asked to submit their resume with the application.

We strongly encourage all eligible students to apply. These scholarships represent not only financial support, but also the continued investment of our alumni in your success.
