The San Damiano Scholars Program challenges students to
explore their vocation in a theological context and
encourages them to make commitments of service to their
churches and communities. San Damiano Scholars may choose
from any of the 36 majors at Marian University. In some
cases, students will have two or even three majors. A likely
career for students in the San Damiano Scholars Program
includes pastoral ministry, youth ministry, religious
education, music ministry, parish/church business
management, vowed religious, ordained ministry, teacher,
nurse, physician, physical therapist, psychologist, social
worker, and artist.
San Damiano Scholars are students who have demonstrated
academic performance and have exhibited leadership in
church, religious, or community service activities. Scholars
must maintain a 2.50 GPA; participate in monthly meetings,
annual retreats, and ongoing church, campus, or religious
involvement; complete at least eight hours of community
service monthly; and fulfill curricular requirements.
Recommendation form must be complete by December
