Alumni Referral Grant
Alumni often look back at their American InterContinental University (AIU) experiences as some of the most fulfilling and memorable of their lives. AIU has established the Alumni Referral Grant as a way to recognize AIU Alumni and benefit their newly referred students. Now, someone you know can have the opportunity for the same experience and receive a $1,000 grant once all below conditions have been met.
Alumni referring new students who successfully follow and complete all following conditions below will:
- Have a grant in their name awarded to that new student (example John Smith Alumni Grant)
- Receive a certificate of honor confirming that their grant has been given to a new AIU student
All recognition pieces will be given to the referring Alumni after the student has successfully completed the first quarter of enrollment and achieved initial eligibility for the grant.
The referred new student will receive up to a $1,000 grant awarded in even increments over two academic terms and applied to each subsequent academic session so long as all following conditions continue to be met.
The conditions are as follows:
- The Alumni Referral Grant must be used exclusively towards future program charges.
- Any graduate of AIU may refer a new student (not excluding PEC employees) for the Alumni Referral Grant by filling out the referral form located at: https://www.aiuniv.edu/alumni/referral-grant.
-
The referrer may refer as many students as he/she would like but will only be able to have two full grants in their name within a 365-day period.
-
For the purposes of this program, the 365-day period begins on the date the first portion of any grant has been awarded.
- Candidates for the Alumni Referral Grant must apply and be accepted into the University to be eligible for this grant.
- The new student (recipient) must meet the points below to be and remain eligible for the Alumni Referral Grant:
- Must not have started with AIU prior to their referral to AIU.
- Must be in a full-time enrollment status.
- Full quarter (two sessions) must be completed.
- Must meet satisfactory academic progress (SAP) within the completed quarter and thereafter to remain eligible for the scholarship.
- The Alumni Referral Grant applies to all AIU Campuses (Atlanta, Houston, and Online).
- Students are eligible for additional financial aid if they qualify.
- All above conditions must be filled in order to receive the grant.
