How DePauw compares across our verified dataset
- 207 of 232 verified schools publish at least one four-year renewable merit award.
DePauw is one of them. The cohort minority (25 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
