Rataj Family Scholarship
Established in 2015, the Rataj Family Scholarship Fund provides assistance to students enrolled in the University's College of Arts and Sciences. Priority is given to students with a declared major from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. Students receiving a minor from our department may be considered.
Award Details
Size and number awarded vary from year to year. For a guide, awards for AY21-22 were for $3000. Applications due in late May.
Eligibility
Minimum overall GPA of 3.00. Must have completed, by application deadline, at least two courses from the department at the 200-level or higher, with a grade of B or higher. Must have unmet need, as defined by the Financial Aid office.
