Our Scholarship

Scholarship Applications are now being accepted.

Thanks to our very generous donors, The Alliance can fund up to two scholarships for the 2012/2013 Academic Year. Applications for The Alliance's Scholarship are now being accepted. All applicants for this scholarship will be evaluated on the totality of their situation, including academic promise and achievement, demonstrated service to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community, financial need, demonstrated leadership skills, and present and future goals. The primary goal is to provide financial assistance to deserving students who show promise as future leaders of the LGBTA community - at UAB, within Birmingham, and beyond.
The application deadline is Wednesday, July 18th, 2012. Detailed requirements to be considered for a scholarship can be found on the Scholarship Application. Applicants may submit either of the following two documents:

Scholarship Fund Status
On March 1, 2010, The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) formally approved The Alliance's establishing a sponsored scholarship for deserving students who are enrolled at UAB. In June, 2011, donations to the fund exceeded the $10,000 mark necessary to become endowed, thanks in large part to one very generous anonymous donor. We are currently accepting applications for our second year of scholarships.
