Common Questions About Scholarships
An eligible student can receive one ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ scholarship award per degree.ÌýIn the event that a student qualifies for multiple ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ scholarships, the scholarship committee will consider each opportunity and will then select which one to award (if any).
It dependsÌýon the specific criteria for the scholarship fund. In general, we award scholarships based on the following factors:
- Meeting the basic eligibility requirements
- The quality of your scholarship application responses
- Financial need is also a strong consideration for most of our scholarship funds
Some scholarships are also based upon evaluations of prior college transcripts and other academic history. We encourage you to apply.
ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ evaluates scholarship applications on a continual basis because we start new students in their programs every month. Often we are able to make an award decision within 6-8 weeks of receiving your application. You will also need to have applied for admission and been accepted to the university. AnÌýÌýcan help explain the process.
No. New and returning student scholarship awards are divided into a set amount per term. This amount is credited against your tuition due for each term. The details are explained in the description for each scholarship.
Yes, you should also apply for federal financial aid by filling out a FAFSA. Most scholarships at ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ require a FAFSA on file unless you are not eligible to apply for federal aid. If awarded a scholarship, that amount will likely only cover a portion of your school expenses, and financial aid can help pay for the rest. You can apply for financial aid while you are waiting for a decision about your scholarship application.ÌýHere is theÌýfull information on financial aid.
