Beyond Access Scholarship Application

Thank you for your interest in the Beyond Access program. The scholarship application is an opportunity for the Scholarship Award Committee to learn about you, your goals, and your reasons for participating in Beyond Access.

Please respond to the questions and upload a statement (written essay, PowerPoint presentation, video, or audio recording) explaining (1) your academic, social, career, and/or personal goals, (2) how you expect participating in Beyond Access will help you to achieve these goals, and (3) why you would be unable to participate in Beyond Access without the aid of a scholarship. You will also be asked to provide authorization for the Beyond Access program to verify your class standing and financial aid package.

After completing and submitting this application, you will receive automatic confirmation of receipt at the email address you enter in the form. If you do not receive a confirmation email, you entered an incorrect email address or your form was not received and you will need to resubmit. We recommend that you maintain a copy of your responses in case your application is not received.

The Scholarship Committee will contact you at your UConn email address as soon as possible, typically by the end of the first week of classes, with information about awards.

Please contact csdbeyondaccess@uconn.edu with any questions.
