Stover Scholarship Application

Stover Scholarships in Constitutional Studies and Moral Leadership are granted to distinguished incoming students who have a passionate interest in creatively transforming the ethical state of the polis, bringing insights from the U.S. Constitution’s Founding Era and Christianity to bear in the contemporary public square. The program includes classes, discussions, lectures and real world experiences designed to develop leaders who will positively impact the direction of American politics and law.

Stover Scholars receive a scholarship of $5,000 per year to apply toward tuition, up to an additional $500 to offset the cost of conferences, and up to $1,000 to defray the cost of an internship.

Successful applicants have a demonstrated interest in framing society’s ethical, legal, and economic debates, a high GPA, commensurately high SAT or ACT scores, and most significantly, conceptual leadership experience.

Please note, if you do not have an SAT or ACT test score, you may still be considered for this scholarship, and are encouraged to apply, if you meet the other above-stated criteria.

Stover Scholars are required to actively participate in regular luncheons and discussions, scheduled activities and trips and maintain at least a 3.0 cumulative Waynesburg University GPA.
