Mariele Schirmer Scholarship in German

The scholarship is open to declared German majors enrolled with a full-time or three-quarters load (minimum 9 credits total). The selection of the recipient is based on academic performance in German, overall academic performance across all courses, the significance of the study of German to future career plans, and financial need.

Students who have an up-to-date Panther Scholarship Portal General Application and the College of Letters & Science Scholarships and Awards Application will be considered, typically in spring each year. No additional or separate application is required; students should thoroughly fill out the Panther Scholarship Portal General Application and the College of Letters & Science Scholarships and Awards Application. Awards given in spring are for the following school year so students graduating that same spring or summer are not eligible. E.G. applications reviewed in Spring 2025 are for Fall 2025; students graduating in May or August 2025 are not eligible.
