Every student deserves to get an exceptional education without financial barriers. That's why Â鶹ÊÓƵ offers a wide range of scholarships that recognize your achievements and, hopefully, put college within financial reach.
The Gustie Guarantee means 100% of full-time, first-year students receive an academic merit scholarship – getting at least $120,000 in scholarships ($30,000 per year) when they're admitted and file the FAFSA.
Merit scholarships are awarded at the time of admission based on academic achievement (official unweighted high school GPA), talent, or other criteria established by the College. These scholarships are given to full-time, first-year students based on their application for admission. No additional application is required.
Once awarded, a student's merit scholarship will remain the same for up to four years (or eight semesters) of continuous full-time enrollment, provided they meet the required academic standards and remain in good standing with the College as defined by our Satisfactory Academic Progress policy.
Use the calculator below to see what scholarship you might receive. A student can only receive one of the following merit-based scholarships.
The arts are an integral part of the Â鶹ÊÓƵ community. For students looking to continue their involvement in music, dance, theatre, or art, we recommend applying for fine arts scholarships. A separate application for these awards is required.
Fine arts scholarships are open to any major. Annual scholarship amounts are listed below and based on a faculty review of your artistic ability. Scholarships are renewable for up to four years if criteria is met, such as participating in an ensemble. A student can receive up to one scholarship from each fine arts area.
Applications can be submitted within your Applicant Portal after you apply for admission. If you apply for a fine arts scholarship after receiving your financial aid offer, your overall offer may be adjusted.
Other scholarships are available, depending on your circumstances. Annual scholarship amounts are listed below and all scholarships are renewable for up to four years if criteria is met.
