Scholarship Search


The scholarship search page is a quick way to find scholarships that fit your profile. This search will find scholarships that require applications as well as those that do not, such as faculty nominated awards. There are three different ways to search:

  1. Category – Highly recommended. This function will allow you to filter scholarships by student type (e.g. undergraduate or graduate) and by major.
  2. Keyword – An example would be the word “community” to find scholarships related to community involvement. Other possible keywords could be “merit,” “financial need,” or “writing.”
  3. Description and name search – This feature works best if you know something about a particular scholarship. Enter the scholarship name or any descriptive words about the award.
