When funds are available, awards will be made on the basis of academic excellence and need to third- and fourth-year doctoral students in the Department of Romance Languages. Recipients will be selected by the Graduate Studies Committee during Spring semester with award money to be paid during the following academic year.
The Graduate Studies Committee will request the graduate transcript and CV of all third- and fourth-year doctoral students who would like to be considered for the award and who will be enrolling in a degree program the following academic year, who are making progress toward the degree, and who have not received the award previously.
