Windgate Scholarship

Asbury’s Windgate Art & Design Scholarship

Asbury University Art & Design Department is proud to offer a scholarship designed to support talented Art students to achieve their highest potential in Studio Art (painting, sculpture, photography, etc.), Graphic Design, Art History, Pre-Art Therapy and Art Education.

Windgate Scholars will be selected from among applicants to receive a minimum $4,000 award. Scholarships are for new students – both freshmen and transfers – and are annually renewable. They are merit-based rather than need-based, and can be added (“stacked”) on top of other financial aid packages, not to exceed 100% of tuition.

Maintain a 3.3 cumulative GPA
Maintain an Art, Art P–12 or Pre-Art Therapy major
Maintain good standing at Asbury University

Deadline: February 1 of the year the student intends to enroll.

When I visited the visual arts department, I was so amazed by how welcoming the professors were as well as students within the classes. I decided that was the kind of community I wanted to be a part of as both a Christian and an artist."
