Scholarships and Special
Endowed Funds
The scholarships, loan funds, prizes, and endowed
professorships listed on these pages have been created at Macalester
College by the generous gifts of donors. Some of these funds have been
contributed to allow the establishment of endowed professorships that
further Macalester’s commitment to the highest academic standards
among the faculty. Income from funds contributed for prizes is awarded
annually in recognition of a student’s scholastic achievements,
accomplishments and proficiency.
The income from scholarship funds is awarded by the
Macalester Financial Aid Office. The funds are awarded to outstanding
students—usually juniors and seniors—who have applied for financial
assistance and who demonstrate the need for this assistance in order to
avail themselves of a Macalester education. (For information on financial
assistance, consult the Admission, Expenses and Financial Aid section.)
Only those scholarships funded fully or in part by
DeWitt Wallace are listed here. Many of
them are the result of a challenge Mr. Wallace made, whereby he matched
contributions to endowed scholarships. Through an agreement with Mr.
Wallace, Macalester is required to publish the principal (initial gift) of
each fund.
