The Biology Club is dedicated to do what it can to
improve the academic lives of the students here at SVSU.
As part of this, every year we give away hundreds of
dollars in scholarship money to deserving students. The
scholarship is designed to help students pursue classes
and activities beyond the normal graduation
requirements. If you already have all the classes you
need but have always wanted to take a class like
Endocrinology or maybe if you want to attend a Science
conference out of state, the club would be happy to help
out. We actually have lots of money to give out and will
fund up to one credit hour of a SVSU course or up to
half of a course, event, or activity outside of SVSU.
The following are instructions for applying for the
Biology Club Scholarship. If you would prefer to fill
out a hard copy, we will be eventually keeping blanks
forms at the Biology Faculty Suite in 1st floor Science
West. If you prefer the whole e-mail thing, you can send
a Word Document with all of the the needed information
and essay to our president.
