Davis Family Scholarship

Established in August 2005 by Emmett Irwin Davis, Jr., Class of 1950, the purpose of the endowed Davis Family Scholarship fund is to support students majoring in Civil Engineering with the goal of funding four scholarship awards of $10,000 each year. Each year, a scholarship will be awarded to an incoming fourth classman who can retain the scholarship as long as he or she remains eligible. Criteria for incoming freshman recipients are: acceptance to The Citadel, declared major in Civil Engineering, and a minimum high school GPA of 3.0. Criteria for upper classmen are a declared major in Civil Engineering and a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0. Recipients are chosen by the Dean of the School of Engineering based on the recommendations of the faculty of the Civil Engineering department. Should a recipient not maintain requirements, he or she can be replaced by an eligible candidate from that class.
