Scholarships

Available to College of Health (COH) Majors

Scholarships are part of your total financial aid package; unlike a loan, scholarships don't need to be paid back.  Scholarship donors may direct how the money is to be used. Application requirements and deadlines differ based on the individual scholarships. 

Letters of Recommendation

For scholarships requiring letters of recommendation, please fill out and submit the "Letter of Recommendation Release" form before requesting a letter from a University Employee.  Ensure the form is filled out and the request is made with enough time for the recommendation to be completed before the application deadline.
