Morris Family Endowment in English

The Morris Family Endowment in English is a scholarship awarded to students at Eastern Illinois University who have declared a major in English. The scholarship recognizes scholastic ability and academic standing. Recipients must be in good academic standing and demonstrate scholastic ability. While financial need is not a primary criterion, it may be used as a tiebreaker between two equally qualified candidates. The scholarship is announced in the spring and disbursed in the following fall semester, providing financial support for students pursuing English studies at Eastern Illinois University.
