Academic Excellence Scholarship Programs Are School Specific

Many colleges and universities offer academic excellence scholarship programs. Each institution sets its own criteria for awarding institutional academic excellence scholarships. Typically, these types of scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis to those students who exhibit exceptional academic achievement, as exhibited by a combination of grade point average, standardized test scores, and extracurricular activities.

The best way to learn about academic excellence scholarship programs at the schools you are interested in attending is to ask your admissions representative or financial aid officer to provide details about the types of scholarships available, application deadlines, and eligibility criteria.
