Reichenbach Scholarship

The Reichenbach Scholarship is awarded by the Office of Graduate Studies & Academic Innovation, utilizing resources from the Reichenbach fund of the University of Nebraska Foundation. Reichenbach Scholarships are intended to provide financial assistance to graduate students who demonstrate potential as meritable scholars. These scholarships are awarded for one academic year, although a recipient may reapply for a second award. Interested students should contact the Graduate Program Committee Chair of their respective department. Nominations of new and returning students are forwarded by the Graduate Program Committee (GPC) of each department to the Graduate Council for consideration. The Graduate Council will then evaluate all candidates and make their recommendation to the Dean of Graduate Studies & Academic Innovation.

Eligibility for this award is limited to full-time graduate students. These students must adhere to the following policies:

1. Award recipients who are also graduate assistants must complete a minimum of six (6) graduate credit hours per semester.
2. Award recipients not serving as graduate assistants must complete a minimum of nine (9) graduate credit hours per semester.
3. Recipients must achieve a minimum GPA of 3.00.
