A group of top students from Abilene Christian University’s May 2021 and December 2020 graduating class were honored April 29 during the University Scholars awards ceremony in the University Church of Christ auditorium.
Approximately 50 scholars are selected annually by the Faculty Senate based on nominations from the academic departments. Each department is invited to designate one scholar and nominate others for at-large consideration.
Eligibility for the honor requires a 3.5 or higher GPA, demonstrated knowledge and skill in research appropriate to their field, and at least 90 credit hours at the time of selection.
University Scholars for 2021 are:
