The SIU Annuitants Association awards $1000 scholarships each year to eligible SIU students. Four $1,000 scholarships (divided equally between fall and spring semesters) will be awarded to undergraduate students for the following academic year. Applicants must have completed at least two semesters at SIU by the application date, be a junior or senior by the fall semester in which the scholarship is awarded, and hold an SIU cumulative grade point average of at least 3.4 (A=4.0).
Selection is based primarily on academic achievement, while noting leadership qualities. Applicants should submit to the SIU Annuitant Association the scholarship application along with two letters of support from faculty or dean and a current official SIU transcript. Transfer students must provide a copy of an official transcript from their previous institution(s).
Applications will be accepted beginning in January and the deadline for all applications and related materials is March 1.
