The Office of Prestigious Undergraduate Awards (OPUA) empowers Kennesaw State University undergraduate students and alumni in pursuit of external funding opportunities for experiential learning, research, and continuing education. Through goal setting, mentorship, and professional development, OPUA cultivates an environment where undergraduate students thrive in their pursuit of prestigious external scholarships, fellowships, and awards. OPUA at KSU serves all undergraduate students and all alumni of our undergraduate programs.

OPUA is proud to partner with the Keeping Sights Upward Journey Honors College. As a distinctive feature of the Honors core, students are taught how to leverage their knowledge, skills and experiences into compelling narratives about themselves and their goals as we prepare them to apply for prestigious external awards. OPUA elevates KSU to national prominence as a public institution through our commitment to academic excellence and lifelong achievement.

Producing a competitive application can take several months of thoughtful and active participation. Contact our office well in advance of posted deadlines so we can help you succeed!
