Endowed Scholarships for Women’s Basketball
Women’s basketball was the first of the Penn State’s 29 sports to have endowed scholarships for all five of its starting positions.
To be eligible for scholarships a student/athlete must have outstanding academic records and be proficient in women’s basketball. Scholarships are awarded for one academic year with the possibility of renewal in subsequent years.
Active scholarships are designated by bold type. The others will be activated upon pledge fulfillment.
A gift of $300,000 or more can establish a position scholarship for a designated sport. Upon activation, this type of scholarship produces approximately $15,000 in annual support and is awarded to the recipient student-athlete.
