Prospective Students
Welcome to the family
Jayhawk Generations Membership
Jayhawk Generations is an annual program designed for your future Jayhawks. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends who are members of the Association can share the KU tradition by purchasing a special Jayhawk Generations membership.
Jayhawk Generations Recruitment Program
Help us identify future Jayhawks by sharing with us the names of prospective KU students who are in the sixth grade or older. After you complete the Jayhawk Generations Recruitment Program form, your future 'Hawk will become part of the Office of Admissions and Scholarships mailing list and will receive information about KU. (Note: A student who has already applied for admission to KU is already on the mailing list.)
Scholarships
Jayhawk Generations Scholarship
Once a Jayhawk, always a Jayhawk – and that includes your children or grandchildren.

- Admitted first-time freshmen whose parent, stepparent, legal guardian, grandparent or step-grandparent earned a degree at KU
- A 3.25 or above high school grade-point average

The Office of Admissions and Scholarships is now accepting Jayhawk Generation Scholarship application forms from qualified freshmen who meet the criteria and who will enroll in fall 2010 (Deadline: July 1).
