Scholarship Questions

How do I apply for a scholarship at UMSL?

Certain UMSL scholarships are awarded to incoming students based on the merit of their admission application (grade-point average, ACT scores, etc.) To apply for other scholarships, please complete a scholarship application and submit it to our office. Priority is given to applications received by March 31st.

Do I need to let financial aid know if I receive a scholarship from an outside source?

Yes. Your scholarship is considered financial aid and must be considered in determining eligibility for other financial aid. Receipt of a scholarship may result in reduction of another award component, such as a loan.
