Employee, Spouse and Dependent Scholarship

Purpose

The Employee, Spouse, and Dependent Undergraduate Scholarship program was created to provide needs-based financial assistance to eligible employees and their dependents pursuing an undergraduate degree at UNC-Chapel Hill.

Eligibility

Permanent SHRA and EHRA Non-Faculty employees working full-time or part-time (20 hours or more per week) with a minimum of one-year continuous service – or the spouse or dependent child of an eligible employee. (The employee must remain in eligibility status throughout the length of the course.)

Scholarship Amount

Eligible employees who are applying for a scholarship for themselves must use an Employee Tuition Waiver first, if available.

For spouses and dependents, the amount of the scholarship award is contingent upon financial aid availability and covers in-state tuition and required fees for the courses, less the amount covered by an Employee Tuition Waiver.

For employees, the amount of the scholarship award is contingent upon financial aid availability and covers in-state tuition and required fees for the courses less the amount covered by an Employee Tuition Waiver.

If funds are not available for all needy applicants, scholarships will be awarded to applicants on a first come-first serve basis.
