SCHOLARSHIPS

The Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships in the Department of Education
and the College: fifty scholarships annually, each with a value of $100.
Founded in 1918 by action of the General Assembly of Virginia. The holder
must be a Virginian in need of financial assistance in order to attend the
University; and he must pledge himself to teach or engage in some other
form of public school work in Virginia for at least two years, or, failing this,
to repay to the University the full value of the scholarship. Blank forms

of application may be had upon request to Dean John L. Manahan, Chairman
of the Committee on State Teachers' Scholarships. Appointments prior
to September 1 of each year are made upon the recommendation of division
superintendents. Any scholarships unassigned on September 1 are open to
applicants from the State at large.

In addition to the Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships, there are a
number of other scholarships in the University available for students of
Education. A detailed description of them is given in the General Catalogue
of the University.
