I'm looking at CSU Sacramento as an option. Does anyone know if they provide scholarships for international students and how to apply?
As an international student considering CSU Sacramento, there are a number of scholarship opportunities you can explore. The school itself administers some scholarships that are open to both domestic and international students.
One example is their Study in the USA Scholarship for the amount of $1,500 that is open to all new international students. Another is the International Student Merit Scholarship which awards up to $2,000 per academic year to new undergraduate degree-seeking international students in their first year of study. The application for these scholarships is typically available in January for the following academic year and closes in late March. To apply, you would first need an active SacLink account (which you would receive upon submitting your application to CSU Sacramento) in order to log into the scholarship application.
Next, you might want to consider checking out the Appily platform. Here you'll find thousands of scholarship options available to international students. Just input your personal and academic details in your profile, and they'll match you with opportunities that align with your qualifications.
Remember, each individual scholarship will have its own criteria and application process, so be sure to check the details for each one and submit all necessary documentation to ensure your application is complete.
You should also consider reaching out to the university's financial aid office directly. They'll have the most up-to-date information on scholarships and they can provide you with specifics on how to apply.
