Scholarships for Squash Players

If squash is your game then you may want to start thinking about attending the George Washington University. GWU is offering scholarships for squash players to add to their squash team. The 188-year-old university is the first school in the country to offer scholarships for squash, a game similar to racquetball.

GWU is a NCAA Division 1 varsity squash program and is therefore eligible to award athletic scholarship.
