Thank you for considering a donation to Letters & Sciences. Gifts to our department will contribute to the Rising Sophomore Award, a need based and merit award.
The Letters and Sciences Rising Sophomore Award is given to full-time students with a GPA of 3.50 or above who are involved in research, service learning, civic engagement, study abroad and/or leadership in co-curricular activities.
Due to limited University resources, we award this scholarship only to those students who have not received other types of University merit awards.
