Pat Koster Scholarship in Early Women's Writing

One or two scholarships of at least $1,000 are awarded to outstanding graduate students in the Department of English who are either entering or continuing in the program and who are doing research in women's writing from 1660 to 1914, with preference given to students researching in the area of the Restoration period or the eighteenth century. Nomination of the recipients will be made by the English Department's Graduate Committee upon the recommendation of the graduate advisor. The minimum requirement for consideration is normally an A- average and any additional criteria established by the donor. Awards are assigned based on nominations from eligible academic units, and recipients must be full-time graduate students.
