The Donald G. Zauderer Key Executive Scholarship Endowment
Through the generosity of Key co-founder and professor emeritus
Donald G. Zauderer’s family, friends, colleagues, and former students, American University’s School of Public Affairs established the Zauderer Scholarship Endowment in 2004.
Each year this fund provides approximately $2,500 to partially
support a student’s costs associated with earning a degree in the Key Executive Leadership MPA Program. Scholarship applicants must be Key MPA students who are
not receiving financial support from their employer and who have completed one year in the program. Application information is distributed to students in late spring.
