Scholarships & fellowships
National and International
Wheaton offers assistance, through Dean Alex Trayford, to students who are preparing applications for graduate scholarships and fellowship. Wheaton successfully nominates students each year to the major national competitions: Truman (public service), Fulbright (international), Rhodes and Marshall (study in Britain), Goldwater (science), etc. Look for posters concerning workshops and deadlines. More information is available on each competition at the Academic Advising Center.
