Poetry Scholarship

I am interested in being considered for the Eric D. Meyer Poetry Scholarship

If you're applying for the Eric Meyer Poetry Scholarship, on the application page's "Essay” tab, scroll down the page after pasting in your essay and check the box under "Poetry Scholarship."

Note: You will also need to send in 10 pages of poetry to Dr. Andrea Gazzaniga at gazzanigaa1@nku.edu. The application provides you the option to upload or type in your poetry, but sending them directly to our department ensures that your poems will be formatted correctly.

Then, if you wish to apply for multiple scholarships that the English Department has to offer, check the box under "English Department Scholarships," and you will be considered for those as well. By doing this, you will only need to fill out one application.  If you click those two buttons, your applications will be sent to us.
