J. William and Mary Diederich Scholarship
The J. William and Mary Diederich College of Communication is proud to offer the J. William and Mary Diederich Scholarship, a four-year, full scholarship covering tuition, board, fees and stipend to a Diederich College student.
Named after the College benefactors, J. William and Mary Diederich, the scholarship program has been established to assist meritorious, economically disadvantaged students who show leadership potential in the field of communication.
It is awarded annually to one incoming freshman and is renewable each year of a recipient’s four-year undergraduate program, provided the recipient remains a student in the Diederich College and maintains a 3.0/B grade-point average. Eligibility for the award depends upon student need as determined by completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
A Diederich Scholarship supercedes all other academic scholarships awarded by Marquette University.
