School of Education Scholarships - Undergraduate and Transfer Students

All undergraduate School of Education students are automatically considered for scholarships each year. This includes current students, transfer students, and students newly declaring a School of Education major. Rather than requiring an application, we consider information from your student record, such as your major and financial need. Our goal is to make this simple.

Optional Application Process
If you want to share additional information about the importance of financial support, you can utilize the optional School of Education Scholarship application.
