Scholars Day is a special occasion when Wayne
State University invites its most promising first-year
applicants and their parents to visit campus for a
day of interviews, presentations, tours and lunch.

Suggested submission deadline: Please ensure that
applications, transcripts and test scores are sent
by Dec. 15 to allow at least 30 days for processing
before the admission deadline.

Every student who attends Scholars Day becomes
a Wayne State Scholar and receives a scholarship
of $1,500 a year for four years. Based on the
results of a small-group interview and review
of a writing sample, along with consideration
of grade-point average and test scores, some
students will receive increased scholarship
offers, up to and including four-year Presidential
Scholarships valued at $32,000. Scholars Day
students also will be considered for additional
private scholarship offers. Students who attend
Scholars Day are eligible to apply for admission
to the Irvin D. Reid Honors College.

a specific topic selected for this event. The essay
