Scholarly Opportunities for Students
At Baldwin Wallace University, undergraduate students don't just learn from textbooks — they actively contribute to the creation of new knowledge. Students have opportunities to engage in research and creative projects across a wide range of disciplines. Working alongside faculty mentors, they gain hands-on experience through academic exploration, innovation and presentation.
Faculty-student mentoring and skill-building experiences prepare students for internships, graduate study and careers. With strong support and meaningful opportunities, BW students graduate confident, capable and ready to make real-world impact.
Honors Program
The BW honors program helps motivated and talented students make the most of their college experience by joining a community of scholars dedicated to academic excellence, leadership development and community engagement.
As a student in the honors program, you'll have access to early registration, funding for study abroad and other opportunities, specialized activities and housing, and long-term mentorship from your honors advisor.
Acceptance to the honors program requires an additional application. Students who meet the minimum test scores and GPA will be invited to apply when they are accepted to BW. Other students are welcome to contact honors@bw.edu or your admission counselor to see if the honors program might be a good fit for you.

Fulbright Award Advising
Fulbright Awards are among the most prestigious grants a college graduate can receive. Funded by the U.S. State Department, these awards provide recent college graduates the opportunity to spend one year abroad working as an English language teaching assistant, carrying out research, pursuing creative work or earning a Master's degree at a foreign university.
At BW, we provide intensive advising to ensure that students submit the strongest application possible. We will work with you through every step of the process, from matching your interests and aspirations with the most appropriate country and type of award to providing one-on-one support as you develop your application materials and navigate the submission process. A successful Fulbright application can have long-lasting impacts on your career and provide the international experience that will make you stand out as you pursue professional opportunities in the future.
