The Department of Classics is pleased to invite undergraduate students majoring or minoring in Classics to apply for JIM GREENFIELD UNDERGRADUATE TRAVEL BURSARIES.
Awards for the calendar year 2025-26 (including summer 2025) will be made on a competitive basis. To apply for a Jim Greenfield Undergraduate Travel Bursaries Scholarship, please use our UW Classics Scholarship Application Form (n.b. this form works best in the Chrome browser). Mark your status as Undergraduate, then select "Jim Greenfield Undergraduate Travel Bursaries". You will be asked to include a statement of between 300 and 500 words discussing your intended travel plans, and how these plans will enrich your study and appreciation of the Classical world. The statement should include a brief discussion of the costs and practicalities of the intended travel, and of your financial circumstances. You will also need to upload a copy of your transcript (unofficial is fine).
Applications may be submitted at any time. Jim Greenfield Undergraduate Travel Bursaries may be used for the Department's Rome Program, for travel associated with participation in archaeological excavations, for independent travel to areas of Classical interest, or for other kinds of study-related travel for which the applicant can make a cogent case. In some cases an award might allow a student to remain overseas for study travel in the wake of the Department's Rome Program.
The amount of each award will be determined by the selection committee.
All qualified students are encouraged to apply.
