All prospective CNS freshmen who have been admitted into the College of Natural Sciences and who have selected CNS as their first choice major will be considered for scholarships awarded by the College of Natural Sciences. There is not a separate scholarship application for CNS awards.

There is also no longer a separate university-wide scholarship application for incoming freshmen.  All applicants will be considered for university-wide scholarships using the admissions application. Students wishing to be considered for the widest range of scholarships should submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Finally, the Office of Scholarships & Financial Aid administers some scholarships with unique qualifications (specific majors, service components, etc.). Students fitting these unique qualifications may choose submit the Scholarship Interest Form to be considered for these specific awards. The Scholarship Interest Form will be visible through each applicant’s MyStatus page after the admissions application is received. The deadline to submit the interest form is December 1.

Please see the CNS Scholarship FAQs sheet for more information on CNS scholarships available to incoming freshmen.
