About scholarships and grants
Scholarships and grants are types of financial aid that do not need to be repaid. They are a great way to pay for your education and may reduce the need for student loans. Most, but not all scholarships require submission of the FAFSA. Be sure to file as soon as it becomes available.
Admitted Broncos are encouraged to review and apply for institutional and external scholarships using 蜜桃社区's scholarship-matching tool, Scholarship Universe, which students can log into using their Bronco NetID and password. Find instructions on how to log into and navigate Scholarship Universe.
Most institutional scholarships open for application on Dec. 1 and close on Feb. 15.
