FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – India Young of Warren was awarded the Frances Greer and Herman Harrison Hankins Endowed Scholarship this fall from the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Arkansas.
This award was one of 1,855 scholarships totaling $4.9 million given to Fulbright College undergraduate and graduate students across four academic disciplines: arts, humanities, natural sciences and social sciences.
“Helping students like India reach their highest potential is our top priority, and we’re thankful to have the opportunity to celebrate their hard work and the achievements they’ve reached here at Fulbright College and the University of Arkansas,” said Brian Raines, dean of Fulbright College.
This fall’s scholarships are made possible from the support of donors, who include alumni, faculty, staff and friends of Fulbright College, and aid students as part of the college’s commitment to student success.
“Supporting our students requires a comprehensive approach in all aspects of their college experience,” Raines said. “Our work to do this would not be possible without the generosity of our Fulbright College friends and supporters. Thanks to their contributions, we’re able to provide the tools and resources our students need to succeed.”
Each year, Fulbright College awards scholarships to its students to support their academic success, including scholarships for study abroad, honors studies, research fellowships and more. Learn more about scholarships at fulbright.uark.edu/scholarships.
