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 at page 142.
