荣誉进修奖学金(HEES)
除了学费奖学金, students in the 荣誉项目 at esball国际平台客户端 are eligible for the Honors Educational Enhancement Scholarship which provides up to $2,000 for scholarly and professional development activities outside of the classroom. HEES支持“高影响力”的经历，比如出国留学, 服务学习, 研究及创意工作, 无薪实习, 会议的参与, 以及专业培训. The goal of HEES is to help students to apply classroom knowledge and develop skills in “real world” undertakings that advance educational goals and/or career goals. HEES is for optional enhancement opportunities and is not intended to be used for tuition, 书, 费用, 或其他与所要求的学术课程直接相关的费用.
Students in good standing in the 荣誉项目 can apply for up to $1,000 per academic year (July 1 to June 30) to cover the cost of approved activities and up to a total of $2,在荣誉项目的任期内，他们获得了5000美元的奖金. Please note that students admitted after the first year are eligible for a pro-rated portion of funds, 这样一来，二年级新生最多可以得到1美元,500美元，青少年最高1美元,000.
Students must apply for funding and receive approval for all expenses before they are incurred (in other words, 没有追溯性申请). 我们倾向于在活动结束后报销费用, 但如果必要的话，你可以申请预支. 无论哪种情况, itemized receipts must be submitted for all expenses exceeding $75 and awardees must meet all reporting requirements. Failure to meet reporting requirements may jeopardize eligibility for future awards.
The 荣誉项目 recommends that students seek alternative and/or supplemental sources of funding for their educational enhancement opportunities in order to make these funds go further. 例如, academic departments and honors societies will often provide some support for travel to conferences, and splitting the cost between multiple sources can be very effective in stretching the funding available.
申请高等教育资助计划的资格
Applicants and awardees must be in good standing in the 荣誉项目. First year Honors students can apply beginning in the spring semester, with the exception of both “Dualies” and “fast-track” admits from the Clarkson School who are not eligible until the fall semester of their sophomore year.
