Undergraduate Financial Resources

USC administers more than a dozen prestigious scholarship programs ranging up to full tuition waivers.

Michael Sullivan (USC International Relations BA, 1957) spent his entire career as a high school counselor in the farming communities around Watsonville, California. He felt that it was essential for schools to send their most qualified students to the best universities throughout the United States and he dedicated his life to this goal.

Michael Sullivan made a bequest to the USC School of International Relations for the purpose of helping recent SIR graduates who, saddled with undergraduate tuition debt, would not be able to attend graduate or professional school. Each spring, the School of International Relations mails Michael Sullivan Award competition announcements to graduating seniors and recent graduates. At the School's pre-commencement ceremony in May, the School Director announces Michael Sullivan Awardees in memory of Michael Sullivan, Class of 1957 and Louis Meyers, Class of 1959.

SIR has been awarding grants to graduating seniors and recent graduates since 2003. The number of awards has varied each year from as many as eleven awards to as few as three.
