Nearly $3 million was awarded with an average of $1,551 given to 1,900 recipients who qualified for resident tuition and showed financial need.

UH President
David Lassner convened a working group to, “develop a plan for the redesign of general education at
UH both substantively, the skills, competencies and knowledge that comprise general education, as well as structurally, how general education is organized and the curriculum is maintained.”
This is the first revision to the
UH System’s General Education requirements since 1999, which makes this redesign process a monumental milestone in the
UH System’s curriculum development. This is an opportunity for the university community to restructure
UH’s program into a cutting edge model that best prepares students for the modernized, transforming world of industry and higher education that exists for them beyond graduation.
