Philosophy Scholarship Application

For students of junior or senior standing (60 or more credit hours), these will be Potter Scholarships; for students with less than junior standing, these will be Young Philosopher Scholarships. Applicants need not be philosophy majors, but academic excellence (3.0 GPA or greater) and a demonstrated interest in philosophy will be prime factors in the selection of scholarship recipients.
