WELCOME TO THE SANTA CLARA UNIVERSITY

OFFICE OF FELLOWSHIPS

Provost Jr. Fellowship recipient, Victor Quintanar-Zilinskas

CONGRATULATIONS to Noelle Lopez, winner of a 2009 Rhodes Scholarship, and to Neil Ferron, winner of a 2009 Mitchell Scholarship!

The Office of Fellowships at Santa Clara was established in 2005 to provide the central management and administrative responsibility for advising students about a wide variety of highly competitive external fellowships, scholarships, awards, and prizes requiring University nomination, endorsement, or review. The Office of Fellowships mentors and advises students about their academic, service, and volunteer work in pursuit of the more than 25 named fellowships for which Santa Clara students are eligible (Rhodes, Marshall, Fulbright, Madison, Truman, and Jack Kent Cooke, for example) as well as provides direct support for potential candidates in the application process.

The Office of Fellowships responds to two principles of Jesuit education. The first, cura personalis, personal care, reflects a deep respect for the individual and that person's potential. The second, magis, "striving for the more," calls on students to do their very best and always to strive for personal excellence. The Office of Fellowships will help intellectually gifted Santa Clara students to develop and to utilize their talents so that they have more to give to others.

The Office of Fellowships is located in 210 St. Joseph 's Hall; Carole Wentz can assist drop-in questions Monday-Friday 8-5 p.m.  Appointments for advising with Dr. William Greenwalt may be made by contacting 408-554-4439.
