Kemper Scholars Program Tasks (“Follow Up”)
Throughout each year in the program, you will be asked to complete various tasks.
These tasks are required and accessible via the online portal. If a Kemper Scholar misses three task deadlines, they will be put on probation from the Program. Five missed task deadlines will result in removal from the Program, foregoing all scholarship, internship and mentorship (and, as a senior, foregoing your Senior Launch Award).
Please refer to the timeline included here for what to expect as far as workflow around these tasks:
Fall Tasks [Due Sep 30]
