Bloomsburg Professional Experience Grants
Professional Experience Grants, or PEGs, provide funding to pursue professional experiences in the "real world." PEGs specifically help you afford career-bridging experiences like internships, study abroad, and faculty mentored research. These experiences get you involved in your career path while you learn about the world and work alongside colleagues and faculty members. To help offset some of the cost of participating in these experiences, BU offers the Professional U Professional Experience Grant. All students may apply for financial assistance.
To apply: log in below and complete the "Professional Experience Grant Application", note this is a separate application than the regular Bloomsburg scholarship application. FAQ's and contact information can be found here.
