University Recognition, Awards and Scholarships

Through endowed gifts and annual donations, the School of Architecture provides ~$260,000 each year to enrich and support undergraduates and graduate students, professionals, and faculty.

School of Architecture Awards

Undergraduate scholarships and prizes support students both in the states and abroad and for day-to-day study as well as special studios and projects. And, in addition to graduate scholarships and fellowships, Illinois provides many graduate students financial support in the form of tuition and monthly stipends through graduate teaching and research assistantships.

All of this valuable support makes a difference in the quality and depth of student learning and research and continues to define the Illinois School of Architecture as one of the best in the world.
