Notice
Due to the recent changes in our scholarship awards system, any new student applying for a scholarship, including the University Fellowship, will need to be formally admitted to their program through Slate and will need to create a UTAD log in. Students can access the system through the MyUT portal. A link is also provided on COGS website, under ‘Graduate Scholarships’ https://www.utoledo.edu/graduate/admission/tuition-and-funding/. Note that in the past, students were able to apply for the fellowships before they were admitted to UT. The process now requires an extra step, but if students are serious about attending the university, creating a UTAD is not an onerous requirement.
Also, this does not apply to regular research and graduate assistantships and only to those awards made through the Award Notification System (ANS).
The deadline for COGS Annual Fellowships and Scholarships is March 1, 2024.
