Talented Student Award for Academic Excellence

The Division of Communication Studies provides a number of Talented Student Awards each year to students who show evidence of academic excellence. In order to be considered, students must have earned a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.00, and be enrolled in a major in the Division of Communication Studies (Corporate Communication, Interpersonal Communication, Mass Communication, Health Communication, Communication in Organizations, Public Relations, Television & Video Production). PLEASE NOTE: If you have a full tuition waiver, you are not eligible to receive a Talented Student Award. (Graduate Assistants receive full tuition waivers and are not eligible to receive this type of award.) The application will be active on Academic Works from September 15 through November 30, 2022, and awards are made for the following spring semester after the applications are reviewed and recipients are chosen.
