Apply to be a Kaplan Scholar
How Do I apply?
Admission to the Kaplan Humanities Scholars Program is based on materials already in your original Northwestern application file. Please note that this program is only available to first-year students entering the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences, including Weinberg-Bienen double majors. We are looking for a diverse group of enthusiastic, top-notch students with broad interests! Decisions are made by mid-July, and you will be notified either way.
Application Deadline: Sunday, May 25, 2025 at 11:59pm CST
To apply, you will fill out a form to submit your application.
First, read the descriptions for the Kaplan Scholars courses being offered in the fall; you will need to indicate your first-choice preference on the application.
Also, please use your new Northwestern email address, not your personal email! Remember to input your full address, e.g., ________@u.northwestern.edu.
Application Form
The application form will be opened by early May.
