To apply to the Groups Scholars Program, students must be recommended to the program by a “recommender.” Groups uses a network of teachers, counselors, local community leaders, mentors, and ministers from all over Indiana to help identify the students who show promise and a commitment to succeed and fit the profile of this need-based scholarship program. A recommendation is the only way students can gain admittance to the program.
Find various recommenders across the state of Indiana. Groups is always eager to add to our recommender pool. If you don’t see your school or city represented, have them reach out to us at groups@iu.edu and we will share information on how to get involved to support the students of their community. We have an annual training workshop during the first week of September.
