EMS Scholarship Application

This application page has been de-activated. It will be activated in January 2009.

Eligibility
The College of Earth and Mineral Sciences offers scholarships to our undergraduates. Students who are majoring in one of the departments within the College and who are enrolled either full- or part-time are eligible. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic achievement as measured by GPA.

Application Procedure
Students must complete the form below by April 15. Students who wish to renew their current scholarship must also apply.

Financial Need
The College scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit NOT financial need. Students who have financial need should submit confidential financial statements to the University. If you haven't filled out the Federal Student Financial Assistance Programs' financial aid forms, you can do it here.

Departmental Scholarships
Some departments and/or sections in the College also use this application for their scholarships. Some of these scholarships are based in part on financial need or minority status.

Extra Money
Occasionally there is extra money available which was not awarded due to awardees not taking it, etc. This money is available for others who are eligible. Most scholarships are merit based, while some are needs based. Contact Jon Merritt in the Student Center for more information.
