Scholarships
Diversity Scholarship
$1,000 to $5,000 per year
The Graduate School of Clinical Psychology awards a limited number of scholarships to admitted students each year for the purpose of facilitating cultural/ethnic diversity in the student community and encouraging the provision of psychological services to underserved groups.
Awards are renewable each year of the program, provided the qualified students maintain satisfactory academic and clinical progress. Students who are not selected for a scholarship their first year may reapply in this form.
Recipients are expected to contribute to multicultural awareness on campus and/or provide services to diverse groups while enrolled in the program. Initial and continuing scholarship recipients are required to apply for an APA Minority Scholarship within three months of receiving the scholarship.
Richter Scholarship
The Richter Scholars program enables undergraduate and graduate students to receive funding for independent research projects conducted in partnership with a faculty mentor. We are grateful to the Paul K. Richter Memorial Fund and the Evalyn E.C. Richter Memorial Fund, administered by the Bank of America, who have awarded these funds to George Fox University.
Students may apply for the Richter Scholar program during their first or second year in the PsyD program. Richter grants are available to full-time graduate (eight hours per semester) or undergraduate (12 hours per semester) students at George Fox.
George Fox is one of only 11 universities in the Richter Scholars program, including Yale, Dartmouth, Cal Tech, and the University of Chicago.
