The Warren V. Musser Fellowship in Entrepreneurial Studies was created to help support full-time graduate students who enroll in a Penn State Great Valley resident instruction program. A one-time Musser Fellowship of $25,000 is available for full-time students at the beginning of their degree program.
The fellowship is designed for entrepreneurs who wish to increase their business knowledge and skills, and individuals who are passionate about starting their own business, leading a start-up company, or taking a leadership position in a rapidly growing new or emerging firm.

- Participate in in co-curricular learning projects, presentations, and various competitions sponsored by the REV-UP Center for Entrepreneurship, part of the Invent Penn State initiative
The award will be applied to tuition and fees for the fall and spring semesters; any unused portion will be provided to the recipient as a refund.
