UNC Family Fund Scholarship & Scholarship Renewals
Applications are due May 15, 2011
The UNC Family Scholarship was established in 2004 to provide scholarship support to the children of employees of UNC-Chapel Hill. The scholarship, which is need-based, may be used for study at any accredited North Carolina post-secondary public institution. This includes any of the 16 institutions in the UNC system, as well as local community and technical colleges.
Who qualifies for this scholarship?
- Children of UNC-Chapel Hill employees who work more than 30 hours per week. Children are defined as being
dependent for income tax purposes and must be domiciled with the UNC employee.
- Applicants to any accredited North Carolina post-secondary public institutions.
Preference is given to incoming freshmen/first-year students.
- Scholarship is contingent upon acceptance and subsequent full time enrollment at one of these
institutions.
- Individuals who evidence financial need. Applicants must file the necessary financial aid forms with the institution they wish to attend and notify
the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid at UNC-Chapel Hill with the contact information for that institution’s financial aid office, as well as provide a detailed summary of
the financial aid package offered by that institution.
