“I am forever grateful for the support I have received during my time as a graduate student at UNCW working toward my MA degree in English. Thanks to the generosity of donors, I was able to participate in a travel fellowship to study in Edinburgh, Scotland, and I have also had the privilege of a graduate teaching assistantship, which has not only made it possible for me to afford my master’s degree but has also greatly enriched my education and personal growth. The avenues I have been able to explore because of funding support has made clear to me the substantial effect donors can have on the world around them through their support of the growth of Seahawks.”

I was able to attend a workshop at another university learning field techniques applicable to my research - an opportunity I likely would have missed without the help of this scholarship. The classes I have taken using these funds have taught me invaluable skills I am directly applying during my research including programming and statistical knowledge, microscopy techniques, and more.”
