The Kingswood Initiative

Kingswood Initiative programs combine engaging hands-on work and resume-worthy experience as you build a body of knowledge and skills in line with your professional goals. Kingswood students work with a particular program or administrator to fulfill their Initiative assignment.

Open to incoming freshmen only, the Kingswood Initiative provides a limited number of $16,000 awards (for students beginning Fall 2023), renewable for up to four years. The following criteria apply:

• Unconditional acceptance required.
• Participation in a Kingswood Initiative program required.
• Because of the time commitment involved, these awards are not open to students who are involved in NCAA-III athletic teams, the Presidential Scholars Program, Esports, band, dance, or cheer teams.
• A special application may be required.
