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.

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).

status. Scholarship applications will be considered when a student is first
admitted to Clarkson College.
