Are off-campus students who are participating in junior year abroad programs or who have transferred from their community colleges ever elected Truman Scholars?
Yes. Typically, about one-quarter of recent Truman Scholars were off-campus in the fall of their junior year when they prepared their application. Many of Willamette’s recent Scholars were abroad during the fall semester, but worked closely with the Faculty Representative in the spring and summer of the sophomore year, and then relied on e-mail, fax, phone, and/or regular mail during the fall.
