Frank M. Snowden Jr. Undergraduate Scholarships

Description

The Frank M. Snowden Jr. Undergraduate Scholarships are available to students from historically underrepresented groups across North America and will be awarded for Summer 2025. The purpose of the scholarships is to further students' study of classics or classical archaeology with opportunities not available during the school year. Eligible proposals might include (but are not limited to) participation in classical summer programs or field schools in the Mediterranean or language training at institutions in the U.S., Canada, or Europe. Students interested in pursuing public engagement projects should apply to the Ancient World, Modern Communities program. Candidates will be judged on the basis of (a) their academic qualifications, including demonstrated ability in fields that prepare a student for further study in Classics or archaeology, (b) the quality of their proposal, and (c) financial need. Applicants must submit two letters of recommendation from faculty members or other professionals who have worked with them during the past two years. At least one letter of recommendation must include a statement indicating that the applicant is an appropriate candidate for the purposes of this scholarship. The committee will prioritize applications from students who have not had the opportunity to study abroad or study ancient languages intensively. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
