LGI Scholarship Application Form
This single application will make you eligible for the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Scholarship, Hardy Hansen Prize, the Floyd L. Moreland Scholarship, and the Ethyle R. Wolfe and Coleman H. Benedict Scholarship.
About Scholarships
The LGI Scholarship Committee awards funding based upon several criteria, most significantly demonstration of financial need. The more detail and information that an applicant can provide, the more helpful it is for the committee to determine an award amount. In addition to the extent of need, all support packages are tailored to residency status (in-state or out-of-state). Applicants can also receive a funding package from multiple sources (such as award of a Stavros Niarchos Scholarship as well as the Hardy Hansen Prize). Almost all awards are applied as tuition grants paid by the LGI directly to the Brooklyn College bursar.
Please note that LGI scholarships only cover about 25%-50% of tuition. We receive many more applications that we have funds to distribute. As such, applicants are encouraged to seek funding from other sources as well, and as soon as possible.
At the conclusion of the summer, some scholarships require submission of a brief report detailing the recipient’s experience at the Latin/Greek Institute (relevant information provided in the award letter).
Finally, please note that scholarship recipients will forfeit their scholarship if they withdraw from or stop attending their Institute program before its conclusion. Terms and details are included in the award letter.
