CASAA Academic Opportunities Award
To encourage undergraduate students in their pursuit of a liberal
arts education, the Colleges of Arts & Sciences Alumni Association
(CASAA) has established a scholarship program in which support is
provided to undergraduate students as they undertake projects out of
the State of Hawai`i that can enhance or further their academic
careers. Support may be used for study travel, conference
participation, fall or spring study abroad, or research, to name a
few types of fundable activities. The maximum award granted is
$2500.
The Colleges of Arts & Sciences Alumni Association was established
in 1993 to “serve as a valuable link between the Colleges
and the community in promoting awareness and appreciation of, and
pride in, the lifetime value of a liberal education obtained from
the University of Hawai`i at Manoa and to serve as a scholarship
program for Arts & Sciences students.”
To be eligible for the CASAA award, a student must be a resident
of the State of Hawai`i; be a full-time junior or senior at
UH Manoa with a declared Arts & Sciences major; have a cumulative
grade-point average of at least 2.5; have some degree of financial
need; and have already received or intend to receive 50% of the
undergraduate degree requirements from UH Manoa.
