For the Spring 2027 semester, the Staff Employee Scholarship will cover the remaining
25% of tuition cost not already covered by the employee discount for one course of up to 4 credit hours.
This award is for classes being taken only through the Missouri S&T campus.

The Employee Scholarship Program is intended to assist staff seeking to start or further their
education. Funds will be awarded twice a year, spring and fall semesters, via application. An Employee
Scholarship Review Committee (a Staff Council subcommittee) will review and rank the blind
applications. These applications are submitted through an online form via the Staff Council website
and consist of paragraph(s) stating needs and goals of the applicant. The funds will be available to
selected applicants who are taking coursework through Missouri S&T 
(no conferences, seminars, or other UM System institutions).

Applicants must be full time (> 75% FTE) permanent Missouri S&T staff members without academic
appointment, and have successfully completed six months of continuous employment by application
deadline. An individual can only receive one award per academic year. Applications will be vetted
through the Human Resources department for eligibility. All applications are processed by the
Advocacy Committee Chair of Staff Council before being sent to the review committee. Current
Employee Scholarship Review Committee members are not eligible to apply.

If you are currently enrolled in the class or have previously taken the class you are
applying for, you are ineligible for consideration.

All applications for Spring Semester must be received prior to November 1st.
