The UCU Scholarship aims to recognize those students who are committed to advancement through education, and reduce the financial barriers along their journey,” said Renee Ouellette, UCU President and CEO. “Every year, students inspire us with their displays of character, ambition, and perseverance. After the challenges of the past year, and the uncertainty to come, we hope this scholarship will empower students to stay the course.”
