Undergraduates majoring in the arts, social sciences and the humanities can apply for the Beinecke scholarship. Scholars receive $4,000 entering graduate school, with an additional $30,000 while attending graduate school.
Each year up to 20 Beinecke scholarships are awarded nationally. Each of the 136 schools invited to participate are permitted to make a single nomination each year.
To be eligible, students must be in their junior year, plan to continue full-time undergraduate study, expect to receive a baccalaureate degree between December 2021 and August 2022, and have the intellectual ability and academic background to pursue graduate study in the arts, humanities, and social sciences. Eligible students must also have a documented history of receiving need-based financial aid as undergraduates.
Nominations for the 2020-21 academic year should contact Laura Damuth, director of national and international fellowships, at ldamuth1@unl.edu.
The campus deadline to apply for the Beinecke Scholarship is Nov. 15. The selection process occurs in early December with final submission due in mid-February.
