Hallie Earle Scholars

The Hallie Earle Scholars are a prestigious group of first-generation prehealth students. Through being Hallie Earle Scholars, students are brought into a community of students, faculty, and staff that will help them find success, celebrate their success, and empower each other through the journey to professional school. 

Current Students

Students are welcome to apply for this program if they are a first-generation prehealth student with a 3.2 cumulative GPA and have demonstrated leadership and significant engagement in prehealth programs. They will act as mentors for fellow-first generation students that are selected into the Hallie Earle Scholars program, and who are enrolled into the STL 1102 N10/N11 courses. Within the program we will host professional development workshops and offer leadership opportunities on the Hallie Earle Scholars Council. Students are not required to have lived at Earle Hall to apply.

CURRENT STUDENT APPLICATION

Incoming Students

Incoming students, including transfer students, are welcome to apply if they are classified as first-generation students by Baylor University, maintain a prehealth designation, and maintain a 3.2 GPA. Incoming students will be paired with Junior and Senior Hallie Earle scholars as mentors.

INCOMING STUDENT APPLICATION

Scholarship

Students selected to be in our scholar program will be awarded an annual scholarship beginning their sophomore year. The average scholarship amount is $3,000, but the actual award amount will depend on students’ financial aid package.
