Deadline

Submissions due by April 3, 2023

Awards

Students will be awarded in each of the schools of instruction. Each student will receive one $1000 scholarship to be applied towards their tuition at CWI for the 2023-2024 academic year.

The Emerging Scholars Award program exists to recognize outstanding students for their commitment to learning, demonstration of excellence in their discipline or program, creative approaches to assignments, and other qualities. Selection is based on perseverance, innovative thinking, and professionalism both in and outside the classroom—not primarily on academic status. Students are nominated by faculty. 

Eligibility

CWI students must plan to enroll in 6 or more credits for the following academic year in both fall and spring semesters and maintain a GPA of 2.0 or higher.
