    Scholarships are one of the smartest ways to fund your education, offering money you never have to pay back.

From academics to campus leadership and involvement to your future aspirations, there’s likely an opportunity designed just for you.

    Not sure you qualify? Let’s bust some myths.
    Busting the Myths

    They're not always need-based.
    Even if you don’t qualify for certain financial support like Pell Grants, many scholarship awards recognize academics, leadership, involvement, career aspirations, or your personal story.
