Francis G. Horne Foundation Scholarship

The Francis G. Horne Foundation Scholarship was established in 1999 with a gift from the Francis G. Horne Foundation. Dr. Francis G. Horne, The Class of 1947, established this fund to support the John Douglas Prevatt Scholarships as a memorial to Dr. Horne’s brother-in-law and the Sara Prevatt Horne Scholarships as a memorial to Dr. Horne’s late wife. Scholarship recipients must be residents of North Carolina or South Carolina, must have ranked in the upper 10% of their high school class, must have a minimum SAT score of 1200, and must be an engineering or science major. These scholarships are not available to varsity athletes. The scholarships will be awarded to incoming freshmen and renewed each subsequent year if the recipient retains a 3.0 GPA. The first award was made in 2001.
