About the Scholarship

The University of Redlands awards up to $3,500 a year on talent, and states directly that international students are eligible for its talent awards as well as its merit award.

The range of accepted forms is unusually wide, from poetry to literary journalism, so a writer is not forced into one genre to compete.

Renewal needs a 2.5 grade average, departmental review and the relevant major. The award applies to tuition and fees only.
