Current Student Scholarships
Current YSU students are awarded the Academic Achievement Award based on academic accomplishment.  Current students are also encouraged to search for miscellaneous scholarships online using the YSU Scholarship Search.  Over 300 scholarships listed online are awarded to continuing YSU students.
 

Academic Achievement Award:


Academic Achievement Awards are given to current YSU students who have demonstrated academic success.  To be eligible, you may not be receiving any other Scholarships for Excellence or be a prior recipient whose eligibility is exhausted.  Continuing students must meet the following criteria:

Criteria:  At a minimum, you must have 24 degree - applicable credits at YSU with a 3.5 GPA.  Additional criteria may apply due to limited funding.  Scholarship awarded to undergraduate students only.

Value:  $500 per academic year.  If renewed for the full three years of study, value is $1,500.

Renewal:   This scholarship may be renewed each year up to a maximum of three years (sophomore, junior, senior) if the recipient maintains a 3.5 cumulative GPA and completes a minimum of 12 credit hours per academic year.  Awards are available for part-time students (at least 6 hours per term) on a pro-rated basis.

Application:  Students are automatically considered for the Academic Achievement Award. 

 

Miscellaneous Scholarships:


Current YSU students should also visit the online scholarship search to research college and departmental level scholarship opportunities that they may be eligible to receive.
