Application Information:
Applicants for the Marshall Scholarship must be nominated by the university and so should seek mentorship as early as their junior year to maximize their prospects of putting forward a competitive application. To begin, it is recommended that students familiarize themselves with the Marshall Scholarship by carefully reviewing the program, its guidelines, requirements, tips, and application forms at the organization web site. The University of Oregon Faculty Representative for the Marshall Scholarship is Judith Baskin, Associate Dean of Humanities in the College of Arts and Sciences. In order to begin the application process, applicants register online (at www.marshallscholarship.org) to open a scholarship file. Application materials must be completed electronically for review by the university representative no later than mid-September in order to meet the program's early October deadline. The university administrator only forwards the online applications for UO endorsed nominees. Call or e-mail (cas@cas.uoregon.edu) the UO College of Arts and Sciences for further information on applying for this scholarship.
