• COVID-19 Emergency Grants for Graduate Students

  by Stephen BurianMar 17, 2021 2:15 pm52  Views

  Dear graduate students,

  The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will soon launch a second COVID-19 emergency grant program for graduate students.

  The program is funded in large part by the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) II, which is part of the Federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA), 2021.

  These grants are dedicated to helping graduate students who demonstrate exceptional need. Grants can be used toward the cost of education and other emergency costs that have arisen due to the coronavirus, such as tuition, food, housing, health care (including mental health care) or child care. 

  Grants for graduate students will be available in amounts between $500 and $1,000.

  Degree-seeking students enrolled in any graduate program (including professional programs) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are eligible to apply, regardless of nationality or citizenship status. Students must be registered during the Spring 2021 semester to qualify.

  An application process for graduate students will be announced soon and will be available on The Graduate College website.

  Sincerely,

  Wojtek Chodzko-ZajkoDean, Graduate College

  Graduating Seniors are invited to participate in the Chancellor’s Senior Survey.

  This survey goes to all graduating seniors as a way to better understand their experiences. The survey addresses the students’ participation in activities and services, student learning outcomes, campus climate, and satisfaction with the Illinois experience.

  Participating students will be entered into weekly raffles for a chance to win three different prizes. We’ll be giving away 15 professional headshots, 10 personalized congratulatory videos from Chancellor Jones, and 150 $10 Amazon gift cards.

  Campus Student Elections to be held March 23-24, 2021! Make your voice heard!

  by Stephen BurianMar 16, 2021 12:45 pm21  Views

  Students are encouraged to vote for Student Trustees, ISG Student Body President and Vice President, ISG Student Senate, UC-Senate, SORF Board members, and on referendum questions, including reaffirmation of the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts student fee.

  How much is the KCPA Student Fee? $17.29 per semester per student ($8.65 per summer semester)

  Why does it exist? The KCPA Student Fee supports programming at Krannert Center and is part of what makes $10 U of I student tickets, as well as multiple free events, possible. Reaffirmation of the fee will help to ensure that Krannert Center, the Departments of Theatre and Dance, Lyric Theatre @ Illinois, and the School of Music can continue to provide outstanding programming for this campus in the future.

  Questions? Please visit https://studentelections.illinois.edu for more information!

  Learn more about your candidates at one of the townhalls on March 16 and 18.
