I'm interested in the University of Mississippi and wondering if they have scholarships for international students. It would be awesome to know what's available and any tips on the application process if they do offer them.
The University of Mississippi, also known as Ole Miss, provides several scholarship opportunities for international students.
1. The International Academic Excellence Scholarship is $26,328 per year for four years of undergraduate study. This is based on your academic performance.
2. The International Studies Scholarship is a highly competitive scholarship that covers full tuition, and housing, and provides a meal plan and allowance for books. To qualify, you need to have a highly competitive GPA and demonstrate financial need.
As for the application process, you're automatically considered for the International Academic Excellence Scholarship when you submit a complete application for admission. Therefore, there's no separate scholarship application to fill out for this one.
On the other hand, the International Studies Scholarship does require a separate application. In addition, you'll need to provide a statement demonstrating your financial need and how this scholarship will help you reach your academic goals, enhance your personal development, and contribute to the university community.
You must meet all the university's application deadlines to ensure that you're considered for these scholarships. Also, note that these scholarships may require you to maintain a certain GPA and full-time student status for renewal.
It's always a good idea to be thorough and timely with your applications. Also, showcasing your unique attributes and experiences will make your applications stand out. Good luck!
