Nationally Competitive Scholarships

Nationally Competitive Scholarships support undergraduate and graduate study or research in a number of academic disciplines. Recipients of scholarships attend graduate programs, conduct research and work in countries around the world, including the United States, England, Ireland, and Korea. They become leaders in their fields of study and in their communities.

For many of the nationally competitive scholarships DePauw maintains its own internal deadlines, which typically occur in the fall semester. This allows DePauw faculty and staff to assist students in navigatating the competitive and selective application process of the scholarship. Students are highly encouraged to begin speaking with the scholarship faculty advisors in their junior year.
