Scholarships, Grants, and Financial Aid

Scholarships

All first-year Schreyer Scholars receive an Academic Excellence Scholarship of $3,500 per year, renewable for a total of eight semesters.

In recent years, the Schreyer Honors College, through the generous philanthropy of individual donors, has been able to award to first-year Scholars a select number of $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 and $25,000 scholarships, renewable for up to four years. Selection is based upon an individual’s application to the Schreyer Honors College and an interview conducted by either an Honors College administrator or a member of the college’s External Advisory Board.

For all scholarships provided by the Schreyer Honors College, renewal after the first year of study requires that the Scholar remain in good academic standing and fulfill all requirements of the Schreyer Honors College.

In addition to scholarships, many Scholars receive merit awards from their academic colleges at Penn State.
