Students who have applied to UDallas with an interest in studying Classics may compete for the award. 

Students are not necessarily required to major in Classics to receive or maintain the scholarship. Departmental scholarships are applied to tuition. A departmental scholarship may not be added on top of a full-tuition scholarship. Each student may apply for up to two departmental scholarship awards but may only receive one. Learn more about Departmental Scholarships.

Attach any supplemental material to the online application OR email to admissions@udallas.edu. Please submit at least two weeks prior to your campus visit and interview.

      2. Your high school transcript will be pulled from your general admission application.

Renewability Criteria:

The Classics Departmental Scholarship is renewable annually for four consecutive school years, dependent upon the student's academic performance and the criteria stated below:

1. Fulfill general scholarship renewal criteria.
2. Complete three advanced courses within the Classics Department beyond the required language Core. Exceptions to this are possible, especially if a student elects to study Greek and must start at the elementary level. The exact number of required courses will depend on the student's placement in Latin and/or Greek upon arrival and will be determined by the Chair of the Department of Classics. Courses taken beyond the Core may count as electives.
3. Begin Classics courses during the first semester freshman year and take at least one course each semester attending the Irving campus until the minimum is reached.
4. Meet with the Classics Advisor each semester for approval of your course schedule until you have achieved the minimum course completion requirement.
