Student Success Innovation Fund: Request for Proposals

The Spring 2022 deadline to submit a proposal for the Student Success Innovation Fund is April 8, 2022. The Request for Proposals (RFP) webpage lays out the application process.

The VPUAAP Student Success Innovation Fund supports projects that closely align with UIC’s goal of assuring the timely graduation of all UIC undergraduate students.  Funds may be used to pilot new programs or enhance existing programming that have a high potential for closing equity gaps among racial, ethnic, low-income, and first-generation students, and increasing student success and degree attainment.

Prioritization for funding in this cycle will be given to proposals that promote faculty/unit collaboration with student success units and include a detailed plan for collaborative work to develop programming that will enhance student experience and success.
Previously funded Student Success Innovation Fund recipients and program summaries are available on the VPUAAP website.
