Creative Writing Scholarship Application Form

  • Waldorf University's English department recognizes talented creative writers, budding scholars, and voracious readers with renewable scholarships for those who desire to study Creative Writing. To apply, you must wish to pursue either a minor or major in Creative Writing at Waldorf University. Applications will be accepted through January 16, 2024, for first consideration. We will continue to accept strong applications until all scholarships have been awarded. Applications are judged by the faculty and staff of the English department. Craftsmanship and future potential that would benefit from creative writing mentorship are the focus of our selection process, not your prior record of academic achievement.

     

    To maintain the scholarship, students must maintain a 3.0 GPA at Waldorf University and minor or major in Creative Writing.
