The Road Less Traveled
There are several grants available to students pursuing off-campus study. For an application for all Wofford Travel Grants, click here. Financial need and academic merit are the principle considerations in awarding these grants.
“I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
Robert Frost, from The Road Not Taken
