The Evans Scholars Foundation has selected the University of Oregon as the site for a Scholarship House, the first of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. The scholarship will provide tuition and housing for up to 50 scholarship recipients who will live together as they pursue their degrees. In a highly competitive selection process, the UO was selected to join 14 universities nationwide that are residential chapters.

Representatives from the UO and the Evans Scholars Foundation made the announcement at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 19, at the Ford Alumni Center. Evans Scholars also shared their stories of how the scholarship has changed their lives.

Evans Scholars must have worked as caddies for at least two years and are selected based on a combination of need and merit.
