The Honors College encourages students to apply for prestigious graduate scholarships. We have gathered together information on these pages to help you apply.

Most of these scholarships require you to begin generating your record and your application very early in your college career. It is also important that you pick a scholarship that fits your particular interests, abilities, and goals. The scholarships below do not list all of the possible opportunities; you are encouraged to apply for any graduate scholarships you feel suit you. The Honors Fellowship Advisor will be happy to support you. Each scholarship has a dedicated page detailing application.
