RE:	 Fall 2011 Graduate Supplemental Retention Award

The Graduate School is requesting your assistance in announcing the Fall Graduate Supplemental Retention Award Program.   

The Supplemental Retention Program (SRP) offers limited tuition assistance for UF students enrolled in a PhD or MFA degree program who have no more than three semesters to completion, and have exhausted all opportunities for a fellowship, assistantship, or other College/Departmental funding. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. The funding is designed to assist students with the completion of their degree programs by providing limited tuition assistance and by involving them in retention activities organized by the Graduate School. Information and applications are available on our website at http://gradschool.ufl.edu/diversity/supplemental-retention.html. 

Deadline:  Applications will be accepted until July 25, 2011. 
 
If you have questions concerning the Supplemental Retention Program or if you would like to receive the flier via email, please contact Sarah Perry at [log in to unmask] or at 392-6444. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
