Each year the UAB National Alumni Society presents very special awards to recognize the scholastic achievement of our students. The National Alumni Society is committed to providing scholarships for undergraduate, graduate, transfer, first-year, upperclassmen, and international students.
The Graduate Dean’s Scholarship, given by the National Alumni Society, is a campus-wide scholarship and is open to graduate students currently enrolled in a degree-granting program who have demonstrated solid academic promise and leadership qualities, and have at least an overall 3.0 GPA. Students must be enrolled during the Fall 2026 semester. This year, the Graduate School will select six graduate students to receive a one-time scholarship of $1,000 each.
Nominations for the Graduate Dean’s Scholarship require two letters of recommendation, the student’s CV and a completed online nomination form. Nominations must be submitted by a faculty member or administrative staff member; self-nominations are not accepted.
Please submit your online nomination packets by April 30, 2026. If you have any questions, please contact Nathan Anderson (nateande@uab.edu).
