Xavier Community-Engaged Fellowship

This four-year scholarship is awarded annually to incoming first-year students who have demonstrated extraordinary leadership or initiative in the area of community engagement or service through their school, community or church, and who have shown high academic achievement. The Community-Engaged Fellows are involved in a host of diverse, hands-on community opportunities throughout the Cincinnati region drawing upon principles of social justice, community building, and public policy. They are guided by faculty and community engagement professionals on campus and in the field.

The Community-Engaged Fellowship is tuition restricted.

Before accessing scholarship and honors applications you must submit your application for admission to Xavier, either through the Common Application or the Xavier application. Upon submission of your application for admission you will receive an email with log-in credentials (including temporary password/PIN) that will allow you to access scholarship applications, honors applications, and your personal application status page. The email has the subject line “Your Application to Xavier University”.
