We understand that families are often curious, and may be overwhelmed, when it comes to projecting college costs. Affordability and Educational Excellence make a Wooster education a great value. There’s a reason The College of Wooster is singled out by college experts for our affordability and why each year we are listed as a Best Value College. With a test-blind process for merit scholarships and a commitment to transparency on costs, Wooster provides families with the information they need to understand how affordable a quality liberal arts education can be.
Clarence Beecher Allen, The College of Wooster’s first African-American graduate in 1892, pastored one of the largest all-black Presbyterian Churches in America and served as president of the Interdenominational Ministerial Association of Pittsburgh as well as the Afro-American Council. The Clarence Beecher Allen Scholarship is awarded to African-American students on the basis of overall academic achievement and leadership. The Scholarship Committee notifies Allen Finalists by mid-January and will release all scholarship decisions following the Allen Scholarship Weekend. Selected finalists must attend the Allen Scholarship Weekend in February.
