Fellowships

Thanks to the generosity of alumni, corporations and interested individuals, several merit-based fellowships are awarded to new and returning USC Marshall students.

The Admissions Committee bases fellowship award decisions on a range of criteria, including scholastic merit, leadership, work experience and other characteristics that add value to the academic and social atmosphere of USC Marshall. Two-year awards range from $10,000 to full-tuition remission.

Second-year Dean’s Scholarships are awarded to outstanding students who did not receive a fellowship upon admission to the program. Awards are based on first-year accomplishments, including superior academic performance, leadership initiatives and contributions to the USC and USC Marshall community.

“They talk about the [Marshall] alumni network, but until you actually live it for two years, it’s hard to understand how strong it is. The bonds you build with your friends are irreplaceable.”
