Scholarships

Scholarships are educational funds that do not have to be repaid. Scholarship eligibility is based on review of the following factors:

  • Merit (academic achievement, leadership qualities, community service, etc.)
  • Need (financial need, hardship, etc.)
  • Special Characteristics (place of residence, intended major, etc.)
