October 26 (11:59pm), 2015 is the last day you can submit an application for nomination for the prestigious Truman Scholarship!
The Truman Scholarship awards $30,000 for graduate study. Candidates apply as undergraduates in their JUNIOR year. This award is intended for high-achieving students who are committed to future careers in public service and must demonstrate their commitment through targeted academic interests, extracurriculars, internships and community service. Each university is permitted to nominate up to 4 candidates (plus additional transfer candidates) each year to compete at the national level.
After submitting your application by 10/26/15, it will be reviewed by a faculty nominating committee who will interview finalists for nomination. Nominees will then work with the Office of National Scholarships & Fellowships to complete their national applications by February 2016.
