Leopold Schepp Foundation Scholarship

The Leopold Schepp Foundation awards scholarships of up to $10,000 per year to full-time undergraduate and graduate students who demonstrate fine character, academic excellence, and financial need. Awards are granted for one year and may be renewed by reapplication.

Applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents with a minimum 3.3 GPA, enrolling full time in a four-year bachelor's or approved graduate program. Undergraduates must be under 30 and graduate students under 40 at the time of application; high school seniors may apply for their first year of college.
