The McDonnell International Scholars Academy at WashU is pleased to share that the Mark S. Wrighton Award will now be $25,000, beginning in 2025—more than doubling from its previous amount of $10,000. This increase is made possible through the generous support of Richard Mahoney, whose commitment to the McDonnell Academy and its mission continues to strengthen our global network.
This prestigious award honors outstanding alumni who have demonstrated exceptional engagement with WashU and the McDonnell Academy and their significant impact on their communities or professional career.
