Paul Devine Scholarship

Given to honor the legacy of Paul Devine, this gift will be used to offset the direct education expenses of UT Dallas students who are undergoing treatment for cancer or who have been in complete or partial remission from cancer for five years or fewer. 

Eligible expenses include, but are not limited to, supplies required for UT Dallas courses, parking and campus meal plans. Recipients of the fund will be encouraged (though not required) to make future contributions to organizations that are improving the lives of cancer patients, advancing cancer treatment and/or advancing cancer research.

For more information, including how to apply, contact Kerry Tate, AccessAbility Resource Center director, at ktate@utdallas.edu or 972-883-2098.
