The University of Louisiana Monroe Office of Admissions and Scholarships will host
an ice cream social for select freshmen students at 4 p.m. on Thursday, September
13 in honor of their outstanding academic achievements. These scholars are known as
“Top Hawks.” The event will be in the ULM Conference Center on the seventh floor of
the library.
Incoming freshman — with an American College Testing (ACT) score of 32 or higher and
a high school grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or higher — will be honored with a
special ceremony which will include ice cream and ULM-themed gift packages, each containing
a special gift —an Apple iPad and ULM iPad case.
Students who had a high school grade point average (GPA) of 3.75 or higher with an
ACT score of 32 or higher will be awarded a $4,500 stipend for a study abroad experience.
The iPads were purchased by the ULM Foundation through private donations and awarded
to 26 students.
