4. National Scholarship info and nominate students!
National scholarships offer recognition of institutional and faculty excellence in academic preparation and experience for students and give students additional opportunity to experience high-level learning and training. We know that there are amazing students across BGSU’s campus that are well qualified for these types of national recognition!
But we need faculty and staff assistance to both share information about these opportunities and to recommend students that would be strong applicants. For more information for yourself or your department, to share with a class, or if you would like to recommend a student to pursue a national scholarship (even if you are not sure what is the right opportunity) please complete the form. For more information or questions, please contact Tiffany Menard, Assistant Director for Fellowship Mentoring, at tmenard@bgsu.edu.
