David & Priscilla Morris Scholarship

The David and Priscilla Morris Scholarship was established to provide tuition support for Black or African American students attending Western Michigan University. This scholarship provides financial assistance for students enrolled in bachelor's or graduate degree programs at WMU. Eligible students must be residents of Kalamazoo County or graduates of a high school within Kalamazoo County and demonstrate financial need. The scholarship is a one-time, non-renewable award of $4,500 or more that can be applied to any items under the school's cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, housing, transportation, food, and health insurance. Scholarship payments are sent directly to the institution and typically split evenly between fall and spring semesters.
