Botz Liberal Arts Fellowship - Fall 2025 Cohort

The Botz Liberal Arts Fellowship is a multi-semester career readiness program that includes a $1,000 scholarship the first academic year and culminates in a paid internship (no less than $3,000 in earning potential). Please note incoming fellows are required to take LS101, Foundations of Leadership and Community Service, in their first fall semester. This three-credit course is provided *free of charge to fellows and will include a service project. The course may be applied toward a minor in Leadership and Service.

Candidates must demonstrate an interest and potential for success/leadership in business or industry, and be willing to complete the requirements of the program, including mandatory career exploration/training activities, the LS101 course, and mentoring sessions. To be eligible, students must be pursuing a major within the College of Arts & Behavioral Sciences, have a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.75, have completed at least 45 college credit hours, and not anticipate graduating prior to December 2026. The Botz Fellowship selection process includes an interview. The scholarship is awarded upon selection; the internship will only be secured once all program participation requirements have been met.
