Margie and Bill Klesse Annual Scholarship in the Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering

Fall 2025 & Spring 2026 Semester

1. Recipient(s) must be enrolled full-time as determined by the University and actively pursuing a degree in the Unit. An exception to full-time enrollment may be granted by the Dean of the College on a case-by-case basis when the student is not required to take a full course load to graduate, provided the student is enrolled a minimum of half-time.
2. Recipient must be a sophomore, junior, or senior prior to the first distribution.
3. Preference will be given to applicants with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater, on a scale of 4.0. For scholarship renewal/continuation purposes, the GPA requirement may be waived for one regular semester by the College, if in the opinion of the Dean of the College it is academically feasible for the student to raise their GPA to the required minimum level by the end of the waived regular semester. Written waiver approval by the Dean should be submitted to both the Scholarship Office and Endowment Services.
4. Among students at each level (sophomore, junior, and senior), one recipient will be awarded based on financial need and one recipient will be awarded based on academic merit.
