The Emens Leadership Scholarship is open to both in-state and out-of-state students. A high school senior, who has applied and been admitted to Ball State University, and who has actively participated in academic and extracurricular activities and has been a leader in their high school and local community may apply for this award. Students must check their Ball State portal for an application notification. Applications are sent out to selected admitted students beginning in mid-November. Any admitted student is welcome to request application materials. The number and the value of Emens Leadership Scholarships may vary slightly from year to year, but in recent years the value has been approximately one-half the amount of in-state tuition. These awards are for eight semesters and are subject to an annual review of the studentÔÇÖs leadership and academic progress.
