Complete just one online application to qualify for one or more of the 300+ scholarships Southern has to offer!
Through the generosity of alumni, parents, and friends of the University, the SCSU Foundation manages over 300 scholarships that are available to both undergraduate and graduate students.
Any undergraduate student with a minimum GPA of 2.0 who has completed 12 SCSU credits, or a graduate student who has a minimum GPA of 3.0 and has completed 9 SCSU credits, by the close of the Fall 2025 semester, may apply. Students will automatically be matched to any scholarship whose criteria they meet. A selection team will then review all qualified applicants and choose the recipients.
The 2026-2027 SCSU Foundation application is open from October 1, 2025 to February 28, 2026 for SCSU students who are enrolled for the Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 semesters. Awards will be applied to the Fall 2026/Spring 2027 semesters.
Foundation awards are typically determined in May, and students are notified in early June if they have been selected.
Log in to the scholarship portal with your MySCSU username/password to open the application.
