The Award represents a partnership between the Bank of America and the Lynch School to increase the number of well prepared teachers to teach in urban schools. It comprises six credits of tuition remission and a stipend of $15,000. A portion of the award is a direct grant, and another portion is a forgivable loan, following graduation and service in an urban school system. By nomination of faculty at the time of admission.
