First-years and sophomores: Address a community need with a 2026 Phillips Scholars summer project!

submitted by gilmerje@augsburg.edu

Phillips Scholars create and test innovative ideas that address community needs — running their own programming in the summer of 2026. There’s support along the way, with the students coming together starting this May and throughout the 2025-26 academic year. Scholars receive more than $9,000 in scholarships and stipends.

Ten students from any of the Minnesota private colleges listed here will be named Phillips Scholars. Financial need is one of the criteria.
