Several undergraduate students at the University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ at Boulder have received diversity scholarships to study in other countries.
Two diversity scholarships, one awarded by ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥-Boulder and the other by the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Commission on Higher Education, help cover expenses in the Study Abroad program for ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ residents who are underrepresented on the Boulder campus because they are ethnic minorities or from the stateÂ’s rural areas.
