| The Michael and Emily Lapinski Scholarship Endowment
The Department of Slavic Languages and Literature at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is pleased to announce the endowment of undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships for students of Polish language, literature, and culture at UW-Madison. The gift was over $1 million.
The Michael and Emily Lapinski Scholarship Endowment will pay partial or full tuition for undergraduate and graduate students of Polish language, literature, and culture at UW-Madison. Tuition can be used to pay for study abroad in Poland through UW-Madison as well.
The annual deadline for applications is February 15 . Application forms and instructions for applicants may be found online at: http://slavic.lss.wisc.edu
For additional information, please contact Professor Halina Filipowicz, Chair of the Lapinski Scholarships and Fellowships Committee: hfilipow@wisc.edu
For 2005-2006, we awarded approximately $25,000 in scholarships and fellowships. We were more limited for 2005-2006 as the full interest had not accumulated yet. For 2006-2007 and beyond, we will be able to give about $60,000 in scholarships and fellowships annually. We hope to fund one or two graduate students with a full fellowship (one if out of state, two if in state) and give partial or full scholarships to several undergraduates on an annual basis as of 2006-2007.
Please share this information with interested students.
