2027-28 Sondheim Scholar applications open through January 15, 2027
The Sondheim Public Affairs Scholars Program supports, inspires, and empowers talented undergraduate students as they address society’s most pressing problems.
Sondheim Scholars address urgent social problems alongside communities through service-learning, internships, activism, research and the study of policy issues. All scholars receive generous 4-year scholarships ranging from $5,000 – $15,000 for in-state students and from $10,000 – $22,000 for out-of-state.
The program honors Walter Sondheim, a champion of Baltimore’s renewal, a business leader, and an advocate for public education.
