How to request a semester-long work exemption
We encourage all of our scholars to take advantage of educationally-meaningful experiences, such as education abroad, student teaching, and internships.
To receive financial support for participation in these activities, you may be eligible to receive a one-semester exemption from the Cox Scholarship work requirement.
To be considered for exemption, your request must be submitted 3 months in advance of the semester you plan to be away. You’ll need approvals from:
- Your program coordinator
- The Cox Scholars Program Director
- Your work site host, once the exemption has been approved
To request an exemption, please fill out the form below to notify of us of your plans.
