The Department of Germanic Studies offers three scholarships to German undergraduate students:
William Goodwin Direct Admit Scholarship
As an expression of our enthusiasm for students interested in direct admission to the Germanic Studies B.A. program, the department makes available a William Goodwin Direct Admit Scholarship of $2000 upon admission into the program and $3000 upon proof of registration in the final required course for the Germanic Studies B.A.
If you are interested in applying for a Direct Admit Scholarship, please contact Benjamin Robinson, Chair of Germanic Studies, at: bbrobins@indiana.edu.
William Goodwin Overseas Studies Scholarship
The Goodwin Overseas Study Scholarship provides $1,250 for undergraduate students in the Department of Germanic Studies within the College of Arts and Sciences who are participating in one of our Overseas Study programs (Graz, Berlin, Freiburg).
Elmer O. Wooley Prize
These monetary awards are made through the generosity of the late Elmer O. Wooley, a member of the department’s faculty from 1916 to 1954. They are given for scholastic excellence demonstrated in the undergraduate German curriculum.
Salz Family Award
The Department of Germanic Studies announced the recipient of the first annual Walter Salz Family Award in the fall of 1996. This award is given in recognition of the year’s best submitted essay on some aspect of the history of German Jews from the earliest times to the present day.
Endowed by Professor Emeritus Henry Remak and his wife, Ingrid, the competition is open to undergraduates or graduate students enrolled on any Indiana University campus. Essays of any suitable length are acceptable, written either for a course or as an original composition. Essays should be submitted to the department’s main office by the annual June 1 deadline for consideration in the current year’s competition. The winner (or winners) receive a prize of up to $500.
