Letter to Applicants


Dear Worcester State University Student:

 

Scholarship assistance at Worcester State University is a partnership between donors who fund scholarships and applicants who receive them. Thanks to the growing support of generous individuals and organizations, the number of scholarships available to WSU students continues to expand.

 

We are grateful to our generous donors whose support benefits hundreds of talented students at WSU each year, and we are proud of our scholarship recipients who exemplify WSU traditions of perseverance and hard work.

 

As you review the list of available scholarships, keep in mind that some awards are restricted to specific academic majors while others are open to students in any major. Scholarship award amounts vary. Where noted in this booklet, “full annual tuition” means the in-state tuition for the academic year in which the scholarship is to be awarded. All scholarships, unless otherwise noted, REQUIRE full-time enrollment for both semesters for the academic year in which they are to be awarded.

 

Feel free to apply for as many scholarships for which you feel qualified, but be sure to review the criteria carefully before submitting an application. A separate essay and application form must be submitted for EACH SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION. (Click here for some tips on composing your application essay.) Application forms are typically available between the beginning of February and April 1.

 

Please direct any questions about the application process to the Financial Aid Office.

 

We appreciate your interest in scholarship assistance at Worcester State University. Be assured that we will give your application careful attention.

 

Sincerely,

 

The Scholarship Committee
