Undergraduate Merit-Based Scholarships

Clarkson College offers a variety of scholarships to undergraduate students, subject to review of a student's application and criteria requirements. The Clarkson College Scholarship Committee reviews all potential scholarship recipient applications. Fulfillment of minimum requirements listed below is not a guarantee of award. Scholarships are renewable each semester as long as a student maintains the required minimum cumulative grade point average and is enrolled at least half-time (six credit hours per semester). Award amounts are prorated each semester based upon the student's enrollment status. Scholarship applications will be considered when a student is first admitted to Clarkson College. 

  

To be considered for a Clarkson College Scholarship, a student must: 

  • be accepted to an academic program at Clarkson College.
  • submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov or provide a copy of the Expected Family Contribution Estimator at www.educationquest.org.
  • submit the completed scholarship application and requested materials to the Clarkson College Enrollment Services Office.
