University Libraries is pleased to announce the Fifth Annual Student Scholarship Competition. Eligible students include Kent Campus students in good standing with the University, who will be Sophomores, Juniors or Seniors in the 2018-2019 academic year. Thanks to the generosity of the University Libraries National Advisory Committee and the Friends of University Libraries, we are able to award multiple scholarships for 2018/2019 - each for $1,000! The awards may be used for tuition, books, or fees, and may be won only once by a student. The funds will be applied to the student's account by the Bursar’s office - half in the Fall semester of the award year and the other half in the Spring semester.

SCHOLARSHIP BACKGROUND

In the fall of 2013, University Libraries created an endowment to fund the first University Libraries undergraduate student scholarship at Kent State which was awarded in Spring 2014 for the 2014-2015 academic year. We are sincerely grateful to the University Libraries National Advisory Committee and the Friends of University Libraries for their generous contributions to financially support the scholarship. It is our hope that the fund will continue to grow and additional scholarships will be available in the coming years.
