Scholarships & Departmental Awards
Studio Art Awards
The Art department is pleased to offer two merit-based scholarships. These awards are made possible through the generosity of donors and may provide modest funds for student-artists in each class rank. The scholarship awards are credited towards the student’s tuition and fees for the upcoming academic year. Art students who have received scholarships for the current year must reapply for the upcoming year, as Art Department scholarships are awarded on an annual basis.
