At first glance, students in interdisciplinary studies programs at RRU may feel there are no in-course awards available to them. While there are no awards specific to interdisciplinary studies programs at this time, students can still apply for awards. (We do hope to find donors to support awards for these programs in the future.)
This post outlines some strategies you can use when applying for in-course awards.

The Full-Time/Part-Time Conundrum
![]() |
| It's not rocket science, but that doesn't mean it's easy... |
One of the most common questions I get asked is whether a program is full-time or part-time.
This seemingly simple question has a fairly complex answer. Or answers, actually, since program status depends on a number of factors and could change depending on who’s asking. RRU has a definition of full-time but funders may have additional criteria and they hold veto power.
