Western New England University International Student Scholarships in the US 2022

MEET OUR SCHOLARSHIPS HELPERS HERE (WHAT’S UP)

Everyone knows that good grades and test scores are the key to getting into the college of your choice. At Western New England University, they can also dramatically lower your bottom-line tuition costs each year you are enrolled.

Western New England University offers merit scholarships and grants, ranging from $12,000 to $24,000 annually or $48,000 to $96,000 over four years for students applying for the Fall 2022 term. These are awarded to full-time freshmen at the time of acceptance into the University. The University also awards need-based scholarships and grants based on financial need and previous academic achievement. There are no separate applications required for these scholarships.

Special opportunities for incoming first-year, full-time students for Fall 2022 include the FIRST Robotics Scholarship ($2,000) and the Center for Social Justice Scholarship. These scholarships are renewable each year students maintain their scholarship’s grade criteria. These scholarships are awarded in addition to Merit Scholarships.

For full-time transfer students entering in the Fall 2022 semester, we award merit scholarships ranging from $12,000 to $20,000 (and an additional $2,000 for Phi Theta Kappa students) annually for the duration of the undergraduate study.

MERIT SCHOLARSHIPS PROGRAM

Merit scholarships based on high school academic achievement are awarded to full-time freshmen. Awards are automatically renewed if a student is in good academic standing, in full-time status, and successfully completing 67% of cumulative attempted credits.

The Merit Scholarships Program is comprised of Presidential Scholars Awards, Provost’s Scholar Awards, Dean’s Scholar Awards, and Trustee’s Scholar Awards. Awards are based on test scores (SAT or ACT) and a recalculated Grade Point Average (GPA). This GPA is calculated by the Admissions Office at the time of acceptance and is based on traditional, college-prep courses. These include grades in English, math, science, language, and selected social science courses. Grades that are not calculated into the GPA include those for music, art, religion, non-programming computer courses, and technical courses, to name a few. Grades for Honors, Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and college-level courses are given additional weight. Only the SAT scores for the Evidence-Based Reading/Writing and Math sections will be considered. For the ACT, we will use the Composite score in determining merit eligibility. If a student takes the test multiple times, we will calculate a new total score by using the highest individual scores. If a student takes the SAT and ACT tests, we will consider whichever is most advantageous to the student.

For additional information about aid based on financial need, click here.

SUCCESS GRANTS

Students who are not eligible for an academic scholarship are considered for a Success Grant, which is not based on financial need. These grants range from $12,000 to $16,000 annually or $48,000 to $64,000 over four years. The grants are automatically renewed if a student is in good academic standing, full-time status, and successfully completing at least 24 credits per year. The calculator will indicate potential eligibility for these grants.

TRANSFER DISTINCTION AWARD

Your associate’s degree from an accredited institution now guarantees you our highest transfer scholarship of $18,000 a year for students entering in the spring 2022 and $20,000 a year for students entering in the fall 2022 through our Transfer Distinction Award. Students who have completed or will complete an associate’s degree, and have a cumulative GPA of 2.50 or better will automatically receive this award. Phi Theta Kappa recipients can receive an additional $2,000 per year.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT SCHOLARSHIP

International Students are eligible for the same merit scholarships as domestic students. Please reference the sections above for more details about these scholarships. The scholarship is automatically renewed if a student is in good academic standing, in full-time status, and is making Satisfactory Academic Progress.

EXPLORE YOUR ADDITIONAL AID OPTIONS

To finance their educations, students may also qualify for additional aid such as the University’s Sibling Discount, scholarships or grants based on financial need, student employment on campus (work-study), or loans or other financing. Our Financial Aid Counselors are available to discuss these options with students and parents, to help them make informed decisions.

Senior Expert on Livelihoods and Economic Empowerment at Interpeace (Closing date: 15th November 2021)

admin

November 2, 2021

Call for Applications: Senior Expert on Livelihoods and Economic Empowerment

Location: Kigali (with frequent travel to the field in various Districts in Rwanda)

Closing date: 15^th November 2021

Terms of Reference

1.Context

Rwanda has identified mental health and trauma healing as areas of priority. A 2018 Mental Health Survey revealed high prevalence of mental health disorders, particularly among survivors of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. In addition, the country’s National Unity and Reconciliation Policy recognises “serious levels of trauma” as a major effect of the genocide that still weighs heavily on society today. It identifies the healing of psychological wounds as a guiding principle on which unity and reconciliation are established. High levels of trauma, anxiety and depression make it more difficult for people to trust and forgive each other. Trauma affects the ability to open up, receive and trust others, and it is a major cause of inter-community suspicions, especially between groups of genocide survivors and former prisoners. This has limited people’s ability to cooperate in shared, mutually beneficial economic activities.

Given the above context, Rwanda’s 4th Health Sector Strategic Plan emphasises the need for holistic innovative programmes that simultaneously promote mental health service provision, advance social cohesion and support sustainable livelihoods. Since October 2020, Interpeace, in partnership with Prison Fellowship Rwanda and in close collaboration with several government institutions including Rwanda National Unity and Reconciliation Commission, the Ministry of Health (through RBC) and Rwanda Correctional Services among others have been implementing a programme entitled: ‘’Reinforcing Community capacity for social cohesion through societal trauma healing in Bugesera District’’ Pilot programme, to strengthen social cohesion and sustainable peace through scaling up community-based healing and livelihood initiatives; funded by the European Union.

Interpeace is seeking to scale up this work to five more Districts in Rwanda- namely: Musanze, Nyabihu, Nyamagabe, Ngoma and Nyagatare.

The beneficiaries of the programme will include survivors of the genocide against the Tutsi and their families; former prisoners living in the said Districts; local leaders, Districts prisons officials; current prisoners in the respective District prisons and their families, as well as youth- in particular those from the families of genocide survivors and perpetrators who may be experiencing the effects of inter-generational transmission of trauma and genocide legacies.

2. Description of Tasks

Interpeace is looking for a Senior Rwandan expert on Livelihoods and Economic Empowerment who will contribute to the successful implementation of all livelihoods-related activities, as stipulated within the project document. Their services will be required for at least 120 working days during the period November 2021 to 31 December 2022.

Specifically, s/he will:

Contribute to the development of an instrument for baseline survey that will be conducted in Nyabihu, Musanze, Nyamagabe, Ngoma and Nyagatare Districts; providing advisory services on the livelihoods and economic empowerment aspects of this study specifically.
Contribute to the development of an elaborated plan for incubation, business plan development and mentorship of community-based livelihoods initiatives in all project Districts.
Serve as a lead trainer of Community-Based Organisations in the 5 Districts, on the ‘’Collaborative Livelihoods (CO-LIVE) Incubation and Business Plan Development Protocol’’, recently developed by Interpeace and its partners.
Contribute to the design, incubation and mentorship of the livelihoods and economic empowerment initiatives in all Districts of programme operations in Rwanda.
Contribute to the interpretation of findings from impact evaluation research conducted within the project, and in documenting such findings through policy briefs, media articles and scientific reports.
Participate in project meetings, workshops and public events discussing research findings or any other deliverables of the project.

3. Required qualifications and experience

Essential qualifications and experience:

Doctorate degree (PhD) in a related discipline (e.g. development economics, project management, or business administration)
At least 10 years of professional experience and/or civic engagement in related fields (e.g. business incubation, life skills coaching, vocational training, or entrepreneurship), of which at least 4 years must have been within the context of Rwanda.
Must be fluent in Kinyarwanda, and English or French.

Desired qualifications and experience:

Doctorate degree in a related discipline (e.g. development economics, human resource management, business administration) or a relevant master’s degree with proven, extensive experience in this area.
Published works on topics related to livelihoods, entrepreneurship and economic empowerment.
Experience in designing and/or implementing assessment systems for the evaluation of community-based enterprises, vocational skills and/or life skills in projects or programmes related to peacebuilding or trauma healing in Rwanda.
Experience in collaborating with governments, mandated commissions, and/or international organizations, for the design and implementation of community-based collaborative livelihoods initiatives.

4. How to apply

To apply, please send the following by e-mail to recruitment-eca@interpeace.org attaching the following:

JOB ANNOUNCEMENT

Position: ECD Specialist

ABOUT UMUHUZA

UMUHUZA is a non-governmental organization founded in 2005, geared towards promoting a culture of peace through education and conflict management. UMUHUZA has focused on peace education and family literacy as the main program areas and as a result of the lessons learnt, the organization has also expanded her programming to areas such as economic empowerment and protection of the vulnerable with a focus on women and children. UMUHUZA is striving to position and sustain itself as a strong civil society organization and actively contribute to the long-term development of Rwanda by ensuring the promotion of peaceful society and communities.

Umuhuza conceives Early Childhood development as a very clear way to build safer and more peaceful communities and highlights the absolute need for families to care for their children, especially during the first six years of their lives. Umuhuza has been active in the ECD sector since 2008, starting in one administrative sector of Ngororero district and twelve years later, activities have expanded to 45 sectors of six districts in all the provinces and Kigali city to sensitize on the importance of positive parenting for children’s holistic development, especially during the first three years of their lives that have been proven by science to be determinant in their future. Umuhuza has worked with Government structures from national (Migeprof, NCDA, RCS) to local levels (districts, sectors, cells, and villages) to strengthen ECD service deliverty based on its belief that a child’s development would never be complete if their direct environment is not safe and supportive.

Umuhuza ECD program focuses on Positive Parenting while promoting parents/adults’ involvement in children’s education, recognizing adults in communities as a powerful influence on children’s development at all levels. Families are sensitized on the importance of trusting, playing, and nurturing children by improving parents/caregivers’ capacity in holistic parenting education. This is in alignment with the national ECD policy that promotes a holistic approach that touches all developmental domains through the provision of quality services to families and children from conception to six years.
