Art Scholarship
Studying art at Earlham College is a unique experience because we emphasize both contemporary craft media such as ceramics, metal-smithing and fiber arts, and more traditional media such as drawing, painting and photography.
Scholarship Amount
This scholarship ranges from $1,000 to $2,500 per year and is renewable for up to four years.
Eligibility
Eligible students must be accepted to and enroll at Earlham as part of the fall entering class and plan to major or minor in art.
Please note: Students receiving funds from the INspire Earlham Program can apply for these scholarships but are not eligible for additional funding since tuition is already covered by the INspire Earlham Program.
Selection Process
Recipients are chosen by the faculty in the art department based on academic achievement in high school, portfolio submission and completed application form.
Renewal Criteria
To remain eligible, you must maintain a 2.0 GPA, take an art course every semester while on campus and major or minor in art.
INspire Earlham Program Eligible Students
If you receive funds from the INspire Earlham Program, you are welcome to apply for this scholarship. Please note, you will not be eligible for additional funding that exceeds full tuition awarded by the INspire Earlham. However, being selected as a scholarship recipient is a distinguished recognition — one that celebrates your achievements, strengthens your résumé, and connects you with a community of talented and engaged scholars.
International Students
You are eligible for this scholarship! Please note, receiving a scholarship does not reduce the financial contribution required of international applicants toward their Earlham education. While these scholarships will not impact your financial aid award, being selected as a scholarship recipient is a distinguished recognition — one that celebrates your achievements, strengthens your résumé, and connects you with a community of talented and engaged scholars. You will be able to interview or audition for scholarships virtually if needed.
Additional scholarship opportunity for Indiana students
The Rariden Scholarship is awarded annually to one student entering Earlham who is interested in pursuing an area within the visual and performing arts—art, music or theatre. Preference is given to a student from Wayne County, Indiana, although the selection committee will consider Indiana students from outside the county as well. The scholarship is $5,000 per year for four years at Earlham, totaling $20,000.
