Good Afternoon!
Below is some information about the Boundless Opportunity Scholarship that I'm hoping you can forward to your students. The application can be found on the CEP website cep.unm.edu/scholarships/daniels.html
The Daniels Fund Boundless Opportunity Scholarship seeks to provide funding for non-traditional, full-time, undergraduate students. Applicants must meet one or more of the selection criteria that is stated below and demonstrate significant financial need.
All applicants for the award will be required to write a 1-2 page (600+ words) personal statement explaining how they meet the selection criteria and describe any challenges they may have faced in earning their bachelor's degree.
Final selection will be based on a combination of the scholarship application, personal statement, and financial need as evident through the FAFSA. If awarded, recipients will be required to visit with Jose Villar to complete a survey and graduation plan. (Students in their final semester are eligible to apply).
