Scholarships and Merit Awards

Scholarship and Merit Award Information

Walsh College has various donor scholarship awards available, with one scholarship application to be completed for consideration for all available donor scholarship opportunities. You must be a new admitted student to apply for donor scholarship opportunities.

Below you will find a list of Walsh College donor scholarship opportunities with criteria as outlined by the donor. Special consideration may be given to students with a minimum 3.500 grade point average. For new students, the scholarship grade point average is calculated based on all colleges previously attended.

Some scholarships may require financial need so as to maximize your chances of qualifying for a scholarship, you are encouraged to complete the FAFSA.
Applicants who submit a scholarship application prior to the applicable scholarship application deadline date below are given first consideration by the scholarship committee. Applications received after the priority date and no later than the first day of the semester, may be considered if funding remains available. Applications received after the start of the semester will be considered late and are not reviewed for eligibility for that semester.

The number of qualified applicants for scholarships may be greater than the available funding. Not all qualified applicants will receive scholarships. The decisions of the scholarship committee are final.
