Recipients of the Special Scholarship Program

October 12, 2018

The Shevchenko Scientific Society of the United States of America is pleased to announce the names of Ukrainian students who were awarded a special scholarship for the 2018-2019 academic year. The Special Scholarship Program was designed to provide support for outstanding, highly motivated university students who experienced a disruption in their academic life as a result of their loss of a family member during the Euromaidan or the ensuing conflict in eastern Ukraine and their newly-acquired status as Internally Displaced Persons.

Between 2014 and 2018, the Shevchenko Scientific Society raised more than $60,000 through contributions from its members in the United States and other representatives of the Ukrainian American community. Specifically, the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America made a generous contribution of $20,000, enabling the program to expand its roster of scholarship recipients to 35 high-achieving students.

The scholarship recipients were selected from a pool of 73 students, majoring in such diverse disciplines as computer science, economics, history, law, music, and theoretical physics. As a part of their application, students submitted essays, discussing how the scholarship would enable them to turn their dreams into reality. Taken as a whole, these essays reflect the aspirations of young Ukrainians to overcome enormous challenges in their personal and academic lives and make a positive contribution to the development of their home country.
