The Office of Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships
The Office of Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships is separate from BYU's Scholarship office. Our mission is to help students make the most of their educational experience by helping them find and apply for external scholarships, as well as research opportunities, summer programs, and internships.
Meet our Staff:
Carolyn Tuitupou, Assistant Dean of Undergraduate Education, has responsibility for undergraduate thesis preparation, honors thesis funding, undergraduate research, external prestigious scholarships and fellowships, and Undergraduate Education budget.
Dean Tuitupou earned her B.A. in English (cum laude) from Brigham Young University-Hawaii and a Master's of Public Administration (High Honors) from BYU-Provo. She taught English in Tonga for ten years: one year at Neiafu Middle School, eight years at Liahona High School, and one year as principal of Nauvoo Middle School. Dean Tuitupou, her husband, and seven children moved to Utah in 1988, and she has worked at BYU ever since. She has taught in the Honors Program, has served on numerous University and national organization committees, and has given numerouse presentations at national honors conferences.
She loves to help students, and her door is always open for walk-in appointments. She has a great wealth of knowledge and has a network of people she knows on campus, so it's hard to find a question she can't answer. Feel free to put her knowledge to the test.
Jennifer Smith hails from Kent, Washington and is truly a girl of the Northwest. She is majoring in French with a minor in Computers and Humanities. She has worked in the Office of Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships for almost two years. Her work in the office deals mainly with organization and computers, although the most gratifying part of her job is seeing students fulfill their dreams with the help of a scholarship or fellowship.
Angela Winterton is a senior from Idaho Falls, Idaho majoring in International Relations with an emphasis in International Politics. She enjoys inventing new recipes, painting, and spending time with her husband Jay. Angela has worked in the Office of Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships since October 2006. She enjoys learning new skills at work and loves interacting with other students.
