The
Office of Special Scholarship Programs (OSSP)
assists
UIC students in searching and applying
for nationally competitive scholarships, fellowships and external
scholarship awards. We provide information about
available
awards, advice on application preparation, and assistance throughout
the scholarship application process. We do not award scholarships,
and our services are available to current UIC students only.
We
don't simply provide a list of awards. We help students present
themselves clearly and effectively for awards that best suit
their
needs. Our director, Beth Powers, can offer guidance on communication
about academic achievement, co-curricular involvement, life experiences
and financial need. Students are welcome
at any point in their academic career, and are encouraged to plan
ahead to prepare the strongest possible scholarship applications.
