Leader Scholars Program


imageThe Student Leader Scholarship was created to assist active student leaders with the financial demands of a college education. This scholarship seeks to financially reward students so they may remain more active role models on campus rather than seeking employment elsewhere.

Up to four leader scholars are selected in the Spring to serve in the role throughout the following academic year. Leader scholars are responsible for designing and coordinating the annual fall Leadership Retreat, and then active participation as a member of the Emerging Leaders Program Committee including the organization of the Annual Leadership Banquet, and assist in the ongoing development of the ULEAD Student Leadership Program.
