Academic/Service Scholarships

Clare Boothe Luce Scholarship

Offered pursuant to a major bequest to the university by Mrs. Luce. The fund provides scholarships to highly qualified female undergraduates to encourage them to enter; study; and earn a degree in biology, information technology with a computer science specialty, or mathematics. Students committed to further study in the medical sciences are not eligible. Graduating high school seniors, transfer students, and currently enrolled students may apply. Awards are made solely on the basis of merit and are calculated to include the cost of tuition and/or room and board. Eligibility is limited to women who are U.S. citizens and enrolled full time. Applications received by February 1 will be given priority consideration; late applications are accepted until May 1, contingent upon funding.

Spirit of Service Scholarship
