Two North of the River  students were awarded scholarships this school year from the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Arkansas.

The awards are part of 700 scholarships totaling $3 million given in the 2022-23 school year to Fulbright College students across four academic disciplines: arts, humanities, natural sciences and social sciences.

• Grace Abbott of Maumelle was awarded the J. William and Elizabeth W. Fulbright Endowed Scholarship Fund.

• Josie Zakrzewski of North Little Rock was awarded the Roy and Christine Sturgis Endowed Trust Fund Scholarship.

"Setting our students up for success is our number one priority, and we're grateful to be able to reward their hard work and contribution to our college and the entire University of Arkansas community," said Kathryn Sloan, interim dean of Fulbright College.

These scholarships are made possible from the support of donors, who include alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of Fulbright College, and aid students as part of the commitment to student success.
