Additional Academic Funds
Each semester, Bloch Scholars are allocated funds for additional academic pursuits. If Bloch Scholars would like to attend a seminar, need a supplemental text for class, or have another academic need, they must fill out the Additional Funds Request form, provide any additional documentation, and return to Sydney Beeler in the Coaching Program Office located in the Student Academic Support Services Building, room 212.
Emergency Grant
The Emergency Grant program provides financial assistance once a year to students. In order to receive the grant, students must fill out the Emergency Grant form and provide documentation (i.e. bills, letters, etc.) of their emergency. Once their materials are complete, submit the paperwork directly to Sydney Beeler in the Coaching Program, located in the Student Academic Support Services Building, room 212.
Academic Release
As part of its contract with the H&R Block Foundation, UMKC must complete and return the academic release form to the Bloch Foundation. The form details each Scholars' academic progress and success.
