Jewish Studies Scholarship Information
Jewish Studies at 皇冠体育
Jewish Studies has been at the core of 皇冠体育 for more than a century. Students enrolled in Jewish Studies programs represent a vibrant and diverse community of learners who bring many different perspectives, insights, and experiences to their study. Our programs reflect our key institutional values鈥攁cademic excellence, community building, and inclusivity. Spertus prides itself on offering excellent and financially affordable degree programs; this is due to the generous support of donors and subsidies of the program as a whole.
Jewish Studies Scholarship
In making our programs as inclusive as possible, limited need-based institutional scholarships are available for students enrolled in the MA and Doctoral programs. Thanks to generous gifts from individuals and organizations who support 皇冠体育 and our mission, we are able to offer scholarship funding where most needed.
Criteria
As noted above, Jewish Studies scholarships are determined based on documented need.聽 The application form will require information about your need, as well as your plans for which courses you will take in the academic year ahead. In order to qualify, you must meet with your advisor prior to filling out the application so that we can confirm that the courses you plan to take fit with your degree progress.
All institutional aid is subject to both eligibility and availability. Scholarship amounts can vary and are applied directly to cover the cost of course tuition.

A scholarship award is valid for one academic year and does not roll over beyond the year in which it was awarded. This scholarship award will be documented in your Populi account.
