Scholarships and Awards

Scholarship Program

School of Art and Design scholarships for undergraduate students are awarded primarily on the basis of ability as reflected in the art portfolio, academic excellence, and with some scholarships, need. Most scholarships are awarded to students already in attendance in the School of Art and Design. Scholarships are contingent upon certain guidelines and availability of funding.
