Hellenic Studies Scholarship Recipients

Scholarships are at the core of the efforts of the Friends of Hellenic Studies.  Over the years, tens of thousands of dollars have been given to help offset the cost of tuition, as well as send students abroad to Greece, Italy and Turkey.  The experiences give them unique advantages, and spur them on to continuing studies.

In 2013, the Friends  granted nearly $20,000 in scholarships. In addition, fellows of The Examined Life program receive a total of $10,000. If scholarship and the realm of Hellenic Studies are important to you, please contact us at: ichs@stockton.edu.

Below is an -as yet incomplete- list of scholarship recipients since 2001. Please note, some of the below were awarded more than once.
