Scholarships

ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ utilizes Scholarship Universe (SU) to assist students in applying for scholarships. Through SU, students are matched to a variety of institutional and external organizations scholarship opportunities. Scholarships are based on need, merit, and/or talent. In order to qualify for need-based scholarships, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Most institutional scholarships have a deadline of February 1st for the upcoming academic year. Scholarships offered through our departments/colleges may have different deadlines. Please consult your area of study for more information.

To access the system you must be accepted by ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ and obtain your JagID. Students accepted after the February deadline can still access the system for scholarships offered by external organizations but may not be matched to institutional scholarships.

! Check back often to explore any new opportunities that open.
