The TDC’s first female member, Beatrice Warde, was a journalist, scholar, and passionate advocate of education. Named in her honor and sponsored by Monotype, the scholarship recognizes one female-identifying college junior, whose work demonstrates exceptional talent, sophistication, and skill in the use of typography across current media, not just print.

Every year, we honor up to seven students with the TDC Scholarship, a $1,000 award recognizing their achievements in and appreciation for typography in design. Winners are selected by the TDC Scholarship Committee, which receives nominations from design schools in the US and abroad.
