Scholarships at Lehigh?

Hello folks, I'm currently a rising junior and I'm considering applying to Lehigh University. As everyone knows, financing college education is a significant aspect for most of us. I wanted to ask if anyone knows about the various scholarships offered by Lehigh? If you could, could you share any tips on how to secure these scholarships?

Lehigh University offers several types of scholarships which can significantly offset your education costs. Here are some key ones you should be aware of:

1. President’s Scholars Program: This scholarship is for students demonstrating outstanding academic achievements and covers full tuition fees. It's highly competitive, given the prestigious nature of the award. You'll be automatically considered for this when you apply for admission.

2. Dean’s Scholars Program: This scholarship also targets academically splendid students and covers half of the tuition fees. No separate application is needed for this program either.

3. Go-Lehigh Tuition Grant: A need-based program that meets 100% of the demonstrated financial need of Lehigh students. Fill out your FAFSA and CSS Profile - this information will be used to determine your eligibility for the grant.

4. Global Citizen Program: This is for high achieving international students showing impressive academic and co-curricular records. International students are automatically considered upon admission.

As a tip for securing these scholarships, it's important to keep in mind that most automatically consider you upon your application for admissions. For those scholarships, you should focus on presenting a strong application featuring your academic achievements, leadership experiences, and personal qualities. For need-based aid like the Go-Lehigh Tuition Grant, be sure to fill out your financial aid forms (FAFSA, CSS Profile) correctly and on time to be considered. Beyond these institutional scholarships, also explore external scholarships and grants that may be available to you. Good luck with your scholarship hunt!
