Pauly D’Orlando Memorial Art Scholarship

Scholarship Description

The Stanfield Scholarships Program is funded by a trust created by Mrs. Marion Barr Stanfield for Unitarian Universalists studying in the fields of art or law. Mrs. Stanfield stated that the Stanfield Scholarship committee should take into consideration, “Not only the intellectual attainments and potentialities of the beneficiaries but that they consider whether in character and constructive spiritual philosophy the beneficiaries are most likely to use their legal training and their training in art for the betterment of humankind.” The deadline for the completed application (Word, 8 pages; preferred format) (PDF) is February 15 (Application Checklist).

Criteria for recipients include an active relationship with Unitarian Universalism, financial need, and enrollment in an accredited institution. The recipient of each scholarship will be a person whom the committee believes will promote Unitarian Universalist values in the larger world.

Scholarships are awarded for one year; however students may reapply each year if they wish to continue receiving financial assistance.

Scholarship winners are notified in May for the academic year that begins the following September.

The Pauly D’Orlando Memorial Art Scholarship is funded by a trust set up by the First Unitarian Church of New Orleans. Eligibility requirements for this scholarship are the same as those for the Stanfield Art Scholarship. Art applicants for the Stanfield and D’Orlando scholarships are considered together.
