Congratulations to all of our Scholarship recipients!
The International Student and Scholar Services Office (ISSS) and the Study Abroad and Away Office (SAA) offer a few different scholarships to students every year. Three different scholarships are offered: The Louie Barozzi, Global Spartan and the Gilman scholarships. This year 33 scholarships were awarded to international students and students who have participated in a study abroad program. On September 21st we held a reception for the recipients of the awards to recognize their achievement and present them with their certificates.
At the reception we had two speeches by the scholarship recipients, Kalindi Parekh (New Student Global Spartan scholarship recipient) and An Huynh (Continuing Student Global Spartan scholarship recipient). They both did an amazing job and it was great to learn more about their own personal journeys and what they hope to accomplish.

After the speeches and the certificates presentations, there was time to enjoy lunch with other scholarship recipients, their friends and family, and staff members from ISSS and SAA offices. This scholarship reception was a fun time to mingle, get to know and to celebrate the scholarship recipients.
