Scholarships and Grants
Scholarships and grants are forms of financial aid that do not
need to be repaid.
Grants: Grants, funded through federal, state,
and college and university resources, are awarded to students with
financial need. Often grants are renewable for multiple years, but
you must submit a FAFSA each year to qualify.
Scholarships: Scholarships, funded through
federal, state, local community, college and university, and
private resources, are usually awarded without regard to financial
need. Each scholarship has its own application process and
selection criteria. Recipients may be selected based on specific
career interests, community service, heritage, special talent, or
achievement in academics, athletics, and/or fine arts.
