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.
