Dorothe L. Johnson Memorial Scholarship

The Dorothe L. Johnson Memorial Scholarship is a financial aid award offered to full-time students at Eastern Illinois University who are majoring in Leisure Studies or Sport and Recreation Management. The scholarship requires recipients to maintain a minimum overall GPA of 2.50 and demonstrate financial need. A distinctive requirement of this scholarship is that applicants must have demonstrated an interest in camping, such as involvement with the American Camping Association and/or camps. Recipients are eligible to apply for and receive the award one additional time, making it potentially renewable for a second year, provided they continue to meet all eligibility criteria. The award is announced and paid in the Spring Semester each year.
