This summer, scholarships from UVA’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies have afforded 75 students the opportunity to learn new skills, boost their resumes and pursue greater opportunities.

On Sunday, May 18, 2025, graduates from UVA’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies walked the historic Lawn under a beautiful blue sky with nearly 4,000 of UVA’s newest grads. After the procession, the school awarded 82 bachelor’s degrees – the Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies and Bachelor of Professional Studies in Health Sciences Management - to adult learners who all traveled unique educational paths to reach such a culmination.

UVA SCPS received an award of a $350,700 grant from Ascendium Education Group, a non-profit committed to helping learners from low-income backgrounds achieve their academic and career goals. This grant is a critical first step in positioning the school to become Virginia’s first public university that provides incarcerated individuals with the ability to complete a bachelor’s degree.
