National and international fellowships, grants and scholarships provide financial awards to exceptional undergraduate students and recent graduates who are interested in teaching abroad, pursuing graduate studies or conducting research in diverse fields. Wofford encourages students across all disciplines to consider and apply for these opportunities. The Post-Graduate Scholarship Committee supports this effort by providing information about scholarship opportunities, guiding students through the application process and serving as a screening committee for campus endorsements.
Below is contact information, a list of links to the most prominent national and international fellowships and grants and resources to help students complete their application successfully. It is best to begin discussions about applying for such scholarships during the sophomore year. Typically, students begin working on their applications during the spring of their junior year. Wofford graduates have received many prestigious awards, including Rhodes Scholarships, Truman Scholarships, Mitchell Scholarships, Fulbright Assistantships and Peace Corps assignments.
