Brief Description:

Undergraduate international students who have not yet enrolled at the university, but have applied for admission, are eligible to complete this application.

Description:

Various scholarships are available for new international students based on criteria such as financial need, academic merit, and educational goals. Students are required to complete an online application and several short essays for consideration. Applications for need-based scholarships must be completed no later than February 1, 2023. To be eligible for consideration for the need-based scholarships, students must complete their application for admission by the regular deadline (January 1 for freshman applicants; transfer admission deadlines vary) and be admitted to the University of Minnesota by April 1. Students must also maintain their F-1 immigration status to remain eligible for these scholarships.

Because we do not offer full scholarships, candidates will only be eligible to receive an award if they demonstrate financial need within the expected range of available scholarship funding ($1,000-$5,000).

In awarding the need-based scholarships, the selection committee is guided by the following statement: The University values diversity, broadly defined, to include diversity of experiences, perspectives, backgrounds, and talents. Enrolling a diverse community of scholars interested in learning with and from each other fosters discussion and discovery inside and outside of the classroom.
Recipients of awards are notified via email by April 1 of the year they plan to enter the University.
