I'm considering applying to Concord University as an international student and want to know if they provide any scholarships for students like me. Any insights into their financial aid for international undergrads would be super helpful!
Yes, Concord University does offer scholarships for international students. They have several scholarship options based on academic excellence and involvement in extracurricular activities.
Beginning students who have not attended any institution of higher education after completing secondary school can apply for the Concord Scholarship. This scholarship awards from $2,000 up to full tuition, and it's awarded based on a student's GPA and test scores.
Additionally, Concord University offers the International Student Scholarship, which provides $2,000 to $5,000, based on their demonstrated financial need and their ability to enhance diversity and global perspectives at the university.
For both scholarships, maintain a certain GPA and full-time enrolment are required to continue receiving the aid in following years.
It's also worth noting that these are merit-based scholarships and international students are usually not eligible for need-based financial aid. Therefore, unless you consider yourself a strong candidate for merit-based scholarships, it would be a wise decision to have a financial plan that doesn't rely heavily on receiving a lot of aid from the university.
Lastly, it is important to go through the scholarship details on Concord University's official website or contact the admissions office for the most recent and accurate information. Scholarship qualifications, amounts, and availability can sometimes change year to year.
