The Oregon State University Honors College is pleased to invite nominations for two prestigious annual scholarship awards. The Joe Hendricks Scholarship for Academic Excellence is open to all Honors College students, and the Janet Richens Wiesner Honors College Scholarship for Undergraduate Women in Science is awarded to an outstanding female Honors College student majoring in science (which is broadly defined). These awards both include a $2,500 scholarship and are open to students graduating winter term, 2019 or after.
If you know a current Honors College student who has demonstrated remarkable academic, scholarly, or leadership achievements, in the classroom or out, please consider nominating them for one or both of these scholarships. Nominations can be made with a brief letter of support (approximately one page) that emphasizes the qualities or attributes that make your nominee stand out from their peers. In general, the Hendricks is awarded to students who have demonstrated both outstanding academic and co-curricular accomplishments and the Wiesner more specifically to students for research and academic achievements. Multiple nominations are accepted.
Please send nominations or direct questions to honors.college@oregonstate.edu. The deadline for receipt of nominations is Friday, January 4th, 2019.
Thank you very much for your support of the Oregon State University Honors College and our students.
