RUTH GLASER BRYAN SCHOLARSHIP

Scholarship Requirements

The Ruth Glaser Bryan Scholarship was created to assist with tuition only for Muncie and Delaware County students with a financial need planning to major in art or an art-related field at a recognized art institute, college or university. Each school may nominate three students. Students must be a high school senior who will graduate from a Delaware County high school or, as in the case of the Indiana Academy, the student must have lived in Delaware County and been eligible to attend a Delaware County high school prior to admittance to the Academy. This scholarship is automatically renewed for the four-year college term as long as the student maintains a cumulative GPA of 2.5, remains an art major and full-time enrollment status. Award amounts will vary each year and 21st Scholar recipients are not eligible.

This application requires nomination by school counselor or representative.
