Scholarhips, Awards and Work Study

The Department of Art awards a number of scholarships annually to incoming freshmen and current students. There are no awards specifically for transfer students at this time.

Scholarships and Awards for Incoming Freshmen

Each winter, Maryland high school art teachers nominate resident high school seniors to submit portfolios for a TU freshmen competition. The winners receive either $1,000 or $2,000 tuition scholarships. These scholarships are renewable if the student remains a full time declared art, art history or art education major and maintains excellent performance in classes and a high GPA.

Scholarships and Awards for Current Students

For current students, funds of varying amounts are awarded towards tuition expenses each year during the annual juried student exhibition. These are not renewable awards, but students may enter the juried exhibition every year.

To request information about scholarships, please e-mail Ginger Ross, administrative assistant in the art department, at gross@towson.edu.
