Peace, Justice & Conflict Studies PAX Leadership Scholarship

To be considered for a PAX scholarship, a student must be enrolled as an undergraduate major or double major in the Peace, Justice & Conflict Studies Program at DePaul University. Scholarship award criteria include academic record in good standing, scholarship application responses, and a reference from a PAX instructor or affiliated faculty. Although the scholarships are open to all PAX majors, students of color, first-generation students, and juniors or seniors are strongly encouraged to apply.

Multiple awards up to $2000.00 will be given to Peace, Justice and Conflict Studies majors who demonstrate a commitment to service and/or leadership, and possess a cumulative GPA of 2.0. The PAX Leadership Scholarship was created to provide scholarship support to students who want to give back or have given back to their DePaul or neighborhood community. This onetime, non-renewable scholarship will be awarded to students who display the commitment to service and/or leadership that reflects the objectives of the PAX program and Vincentian mission.
