Scholarships in the College

College of Science Scholarship Introduction

The College of Science plans to award 10-15 undergraduate scholarships for the 2008-2009 academic year. These awards will be made during the spring semester 2008. Some of the scholarships have selections criteria stipulated by the donor (e.g. financial need, a specific major, attendance at a specific high school). This information is listed on the cover page of the application.

These scholarships are grouped into two categories.

Category 1 is based principally on academic achievement and /or leadership.
Category 2 is based on academic achievement and/or leadership with an added need based component.
- Financial Need Eligibility is determined by the Financial Aid office guidelines and all students who apply must have a FAFSA on file by the scholarship deadline (there will be no exceptions). If you have any questions about your eligibility please make an appointment with your financial aid advisor.

Inquires or questions should be e-mailed to cosadvising@vt.edu.

Application:

To apply, please complete the application form on-line and provide the requested supporting information by the deadline listed below. Students are encouraged to apply for all scholarships in which they are eligible and apply for scholarships in both categories if they meet the criteria. Students who plan to apply for both Category 1 and 2 scholarships must meet the Category 1 deadline. We particularly encourage applications in Category 2 as the need based compound will limit the number of eligible students.
