    * Your name
    * Current GPA
    * Philosophical interests
    * Philosophical ambitions
    * Philosophy courses taken, including the grades you received for each course
    * Perhaps other courses related to philosophy that you have taken, including the grades
    * Philosophical papers that you have presented (if any)
    * Philosophical publications (if any)
    * Membership in any philosophical organizations, including any leadership positions
    * An argument illustrating why you deserve to be a recipient of this scholarship

A polished, philosophical writing sample will also be welcomed as an optional supplement to your letter of application.

All entries must be submitted to the Philosophy Department by 5:00 pm on April 30.

The Philosophy Department hopes to award the scholarship by the end of this semester.
