The University of Arizona has received a lifetime achievement award for its commitment to the Peace Corps. The University is one of the top 25 national producers of Peace Corps volunteers with UA grads serving from Mongolia to Madagascar. The UA also is home to the 2nd largest Peace Corps Fellows/USA program, which allows returning volunteers to "earn" their tuition for graduate school by working with under-served populations in Tucson. This win-win partnership has provided more than 80,000 hours of community service to local non-profit organizations.
