The Department of Design is pleased to host the Design Scholarship Competition. The competition
is open to all degree seeking, undergraduate students attending Winthrop University
for the first time (freshman and transfer) students during the academic year. Students
must declare a major within the Department of Design: Visual Communication Design
(Graphic Design, Illustration), and Interior Design.
Scholarship amounts will vary based on the decision of the Design scholarship committee.
Students selected for an award have the opportunity to renew their scholarship for
up to three years after the initial award year providing they remain in good academic
standing as a full-time student in the Department of Design. Out-of-state students
selected for this award are eligible to receive the scholarship amount in addition
to an out-of-state tuition waiver (valued at $14,330 for the 2019-2020 academic year).
This scholarship is contingent on admission to Winthrop University. An online application for Winthrop University can be found at www.winthrop.edu/admissions. Acceptance of this award does not impact eligibility for other Winthrop academic
scholarships offered by the Office of Admissions.
