The Graduate College will receive applications for the Western Michigan University Dames Scholarship in Spring 2008.

First awarded in 1997 in accordance with an agreement made between Western Michigan University on the one side and the WMU Women’s Association and the University Dames on the other side, the scholarship is offered on a competitive basis to exceptional graduate students enrolled in a degree program at WMU. By the terms of the agreement, “Preference shall be given to a female candidate who has successfully completed a minimum of 15 credit hours toward the graduate degree.” The award is limited to tuition, fees, and books. At least one scholarship of $1,000 or more is planned to be awarded in the Spring 2008 competition.

Nominations for the scholarships shall be made only by a department chair or graduate advisor. A nomination shall consist of the nominee’s vita and a letter of support from either the department chair or the graduate advisor. Nominations must be addressed to the Dean of the Graduate College and received at the Graduate College office in Walwood Hall by 5:00 p.m. on May 30, 2008.
