SCHOLARSHIPS
SCHOLARSHIP
The Donna Dillon Manning and Larry Horner Study Abroad Scholarship
This is a need-based scholarship, designed to alleviate the financial burden associated with global programs. These scholarships, governed by Westmont College policies and procedures, support students with demonstrated financial need who have been selected to participate in approved study abroad opportunities. The financial awards specifically target expenses such as airfare, program fees, and other related costs that extend beyond the standard tuition, room/board charges, and fees. Students attending any semester-long, Mayterm, or summer program are eligible to apply, as long as they have applied through Westmont. This includes summer affiliate programs. Recipients will be selected based on academic merit and financial need.
SCHOLARSHIP
Rose Marie Springer Diversity Scholarship
This scholarship was established by Westmont in San Francisco (then “San Francisco Urban Program”) in 2005 to honor Rose Marie “Rusty” Springer who served at the Program for 20 years. The purpose of this scholarship is to provide a continuing source of support to individuals interested in pursuing work in diversity and reconciliation, whether that is socio-economic, religious, gender, racial, or other, by awarding scholarships to college students who participate at Westmont in San Francisco. Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of merit to students who embody the qualities that are eminently seen in the life of Rusty; those of tolerance, sensitivity, grace, mercy, justice and compassion.
