精东AV

Skip to main content

A competitive full-tuition, four-year scholarship is available to students entering 精东AV each fall who have studied Latin and intend to major in Classical Languages. Many recipients of the Castellano Scholarship also major in a second field of their choice in addition to classics. The requirements to retain this scholarship are enrollment in a Latin or Greek class each semester and maintenance of a 3.0 average both in the classics major and overall.

This scholarship, offered for the first time in 1982, was established in honor of Reverend Charles A. Castellano, S.J., longtime member of the Classical Languages Department, who died in 1976.
