Guilford has 60 Bonner Scholars ? 15 in each class. They are from all over the state, country and world. The selection process for these scholars is quite stringent. Students must first demonstrate, in the context of their application materials, an extraordinary commitment to service. The admission committee will choose roughly 100 students from our applicant pool for further consideration by the Bonner Committee, which will narrow that number down to about 25 to be interviewed. After careful consideration, 15 Bonner Scholars are selected based on their financial need and demonstrated commitment to service.
