About the Scholarship Program

Each year the Society awards a number of UTS scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students meeting criteria of academic excellence, participation in school, Ukrainian and general community activities, and financial need. These are funded by donations from the Ukrainian community at large. To date, the Society has distributed over $222,200 in 45 campaigns to 291 deserving students.  

Eligibility

The UTS offers scholarships to college, university or graduate students of Ukrainian ancestry domiciled in Western Pennsylvania, the Austintown-Youngstown areas, and the northern panhandle of West Virginia. Detailed eligibility requirements can be found on the scholarship application form.
