The University of Minnesota has changed the eligibility criteria for two women-only scholarships and is reviewing other awards in response to a complaint of anti-male discrimination.

"The University is committed to offering access and opportunity to individuals of all gender identities. The University regularly reviews the selection criteria for scholarships to ensure, among other things, that they are consistent with evolving understandings of gender identity and laws protecting against discrimination based on gender identity," it read. Perry since has asked U officials to look into a fourth women-only scholarship, as well as two awards for women faculty and staff.

The Barcelo scholarship used to help "Women-identified students with financial need with a special focus on women of color, new immigrants and first-generation college students." It's now open to any U student "With financial need."
