The Evans Scholar selection committee seeks extraordinary students who have met Swarthmore’s rigorous admission standards and whose achievements demonstrate integrity, intelligence, the potential to take advantage of the scholarship’s offerings, and a commitment to give back to the community as involved citizens. Finalists are selected from admitted students and are invited for on-campus interviews in April. All admitted students are considered – no special application or additional information is required.

Each Philip Evans Scholar receives a one-time computer purchase allowance of up to $1,500 and an annual opportunity grant to create a personalized series of learning experiences outside the classroom. These opportunities may include international travel, professional internships, independent research, and community service. Philip Evans Scholars also receive extensive mentoring, participate in group programs and on-campus and off-campus trips. In addition, for Evans Scholars who demonstrate financial need, our financial aid award will not include a loan component.
