Honors Fellowships are awarded to first-year students admitted to Washington College. Students may apply on their own for these scholarships, but may also be nominated by their admissions counselor. Priority consideration for these scholarships is given to students who apply to WC by December 1st.
Honors Fellowships are interest-based scholarships that offer a variety of opportunities throughout the recipient’s time at Washington College, continue below to learn more about each individual Honors Fellowship.
Merit-based Academic Tuition Scholarships
Merit-based academic tuition scholarships are offered to students based on GPA, test scores, class rank or other criteria as determined by the Office of Admissions.
Students are automatically considered for merit-based scholarships when they submit their application. At the time of admission, students will be notified of their eligibility for merit-based scholarships. Awards generally range up to $35,000, renewable annually.
All admitted National Honor Society and Cum Laude Society students who have an unweighted GPA of 3.0 or better receive at least $25,000 in an academic tuition award.
Academic tuition scholarships are awarded to active Phi Theta Kappa members who apply as transfer students.
These scholarships recognize academic achievement regardless of financial need. More than half of our students qualify for a merit-based tuition scholarship. Scholarship amounts can be up to $35,000 per year.
Tuition Exchange
Washington College is excited to accept Tuition Exchange applications each year from member institutions under the guidelines of the Tuition Exchange organization. Supporting the educational opportunities of the children of colleagues in higher education is important to us, and we are pleased to be a part of this service.
The Tuition Exchange scholarship covers the total cost of tuition to WC for up to 4 years of undergraduate education. This scholarship does not cover the costs of room and board, or other fees.
