The Leah Waddell Scholarship was adopted by the North Carolina Association of Free Will Baptists in 1964. The fund was established to assist students from North Carolina and descendants of Leah Waddell who desire to attend Welch College. It is funded entirely through gifts: projects adopted by Sunday School classes, WAC’s Vacation Bible School, individuals, etc. The Waddell Scholarship is awarded annually to a worthy student selected by the college administration. Students from North Carolina or the Waddell family can apply for the scholarship at http://welch.edu/admissions/tuition-financial-aid/scholarship-application/
