Dr. Donna Decker Scholarship for Journalism, Advertising, and Media Studies (JAMS)
Eligible students will be full-time students with junior or senior standing and a declared major in either English or JAMS. The selected student will have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement. Second degree students (students who already hold one bachelor’s degree) are not eligible.
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 are for Fall; students graduating in May or August are not eligible.
