Undergraduate Scholarships
Washington State University, the College of Agricultural, Human and Resource Sciences (CAHNRS) and the Department of Human Development all award scholarships. WSU and CAHNRS scholarships use one application. (The CAHNRS Undergraduate Scholarships do not require a separate application. CAHNRS uses the University Scholarship Application as the official application for CAHNRS undergraduate scholarship awards as well.)

The
Human Development Department uses a different
application as it is jointly used for scholarships and dept. awards,
see description below:
HD SCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS:
Each year the HD Department selects an Outstanding Freshman, Junior and campus and DDP Senior of the Year. In addition the HD Department awards 15-20 scholarships, for a total of about $18,000, to certified Human Development majors. These scholarships are merit based (minimum overall GPA, 3.0) and are not dependent on students' financial circumstances. They are typically awarded for the full academic year (split between fall and spring semesters), but in special requested circumstances may be awarded for a single semester or summer.
Each scholarship is provided through donations from individuals who have set up an endowment with the university in order to provide scholarships to students majoring in Human Development.
To apply for an HD scholarship or award please complete the
application, and submit, along with a letter of recommendation from your HD advisor or other WSU professor, to the HD main office (JT 501) by 5 Pm Friday December 14, 2007.
