Art & Design Scholarship

Please log in to your admission account to apply for the Art & Design Scholarship or continue reading for more information.

Muskingum University Art & Design Scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate outstanding talent and potential through their portfolios. The value of the Art & Design Scholarship may be up to $2,000 annually, renewable for up to four years of study at Muskingum.

Financial need is not a requirement, though these awards are factored into a comprehensive financial aid offer for students demonstrating need. Students are encouraged to apply early for the Art & Design Scholarship, as awards to students whose applications are received after a need-based financial aid package is sent will be limited to a maximum of $1,000. To be considered for an Art & Design Scholarship, a student must:

  1. Be admitted to Muskingum University as a full-time student.
  2. Submit an art/design portfolio to ebauer@muskingum.edu for review. This usually consists of approximately 5-10 of your best works submitted as a website or video link, .pdf file, or PowerPoint presentation.

To maintain eligibility, a student must:

  1. Enroll in at least one art or design (DMD) course each semester.
  2. Maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) in all art/design classes of 3.0 or better per semester and in all university coursework of 2.5 or better per semester.
  3. Support the department through attendance at departmentally sponsored events.
  4. For art/design majors/minors: successfully matriculate through the sequence of courses involved in the degree program.
