Alpha Sigma Lambda Scholarship (Continuing Education Students Only)

Alpha Sigma Lambda (ASL) is an honor society which partners with colleges and universities to celebrate the scholarship and leadership of undergraduate adult learners in higher education.  Because Aquinas has an ASL chapter on campus, current Aquinas Continuing Education Students who plan to attend Aquinas during the 2012 fall and 2013 spring semesters and who meet certain criteria are eligible to apply.  Up to two applications from the entire pool of entries at Aquinas will be chosen to be submitted to the ASL national office for consideration.  Application forms are available in the Financial Aid Office.
