Description
The University Scholars Program (USP) welcomed its first matriculating class in 1999.
This innovative program was the first of its kind in the United States and around the world, bringing together undergraduates, graduate students, and students from Duke’s professional schools to meet regularly through seminars, informal mentoring, programmatic retreats, and student-led symposia.
Other universities and colleges have sought to emulate certain aspects of the USP, but the interdisciplinary-minded community of students at various stages of tertiary and post tertiary education remains unique.
Benefits
This scholarship covers the cost of tuition, mandatory fees, room, and board for four years of full-time undergraduate studies.
Eligibility
- The University Scholarship recognizes students with excitement for interdisciplinary research, collaborative thinking, and innovative scholarship.
