Scholarship Criteria:
- Graduate GPA of at least a 2.5; or, for students without previous graduate credit, a cumulative undergraduate GPA of at least a 2.5.
- Unconditional acceptance in the MA Political Science Program.
Preference will be given to those graduate students who have taken less than 18 graduate credit hours.
