Susan T. Kern Special Opportunity Scholarship

The vision for the Susan T. Kern Special Opportunity Scholarship Fund is to provide financial support to Illinois State University students in support of one-time special academic or co-curricular opportunities. It is Dr Kern’s wish to provide financial assistance to a student for an opportunity they otherwise wouldn’t be able to fund. Awards will be considered by the Selection Committee and reviewed on an as-needed basis. The Selection Committee consists of representatives from the offices of the Provost, Women’s and Gender Studies, Dean of Students, and Development.

Applications for the 2022-2023 academic year are now available. Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis. 

For more information about this opportunity contact the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs at 309-438-1748 or StudentAffairs@IllinoisState.edu.
