College of the Arts Scholarship Applications Available

Applications for scholarships in the College of the Arts are now available. A list of awards and brief criteria is provided below. Since most awards are to be applied toward tuition and fees during the subsequent academic year, applicants should only apply if they know these costs will not already be fully covered by other scholarships. For most awards, applicants must be full-time students already enrolled in the College of the Arts. Additional criteria and guidelines may be found in the attachements (click on the award titles to download and print the scholarship applications.)
