Optional Fields
The Bonner Scholar Program (20 scholarships/year): This program is for financially needy students who have been involved with community service. The student’s full need is met and the normal federal work study opportunity is replaced by a service component. This is given as a stipend as long as the student is doing the community service component. This continues even in the summer while they are at home. A student who stays with the program also receives a first-time payment on any student loans over $1,000.
The Posse Program (20 scholarships/year):
We have students from NY and Chicago who generally are overlooked in the traditional admission process but have the potential to excel academically while also demonstrating exceptional leadership abilities. These students receive a full-tuition scholarship plus any additional need-based financial aid they are eligible to receive. To assist with their academic and social adjustment to DePauw, a designated faculty member serves as their personal, as well as cohort mentor, and meets with them on a regular basis.
21st Century Scholars Program:
This is an Indiana State administered program for low income students in Indiana that apply while in middle school. The student has a commitment to abstain from alcohol or drug use. DePauw is supposed to supply a program to support these students if needed.
LEDA (Leadership Enterprise for a Diverse America) (1-2 scholarships/year):
DePauw partners with this national organization (based in New York) to identify the academic and leadership potential of exceptional nationwide public high school students of modest means. DePauw works with LEDA to select 1-2 students who receive full, four-year scholarships.
Julian Scholars Program:
The National Science Foundation encourages needy students interested in the sciences to apply for a $10,000 scholarship. DePauw meets the remaining demonstrated need with grant assistance so these students can devote all of their time to their studies and, hopefully, consider the possibility of graduate education. The federal Stafford Loan is included as an option in their reward if needed.
