I'm considering Sacred Heart University and was wondering about the scholarships they offer to international students. How much do they typically cover and what are the application requirements?
Sacred Heart University offers several scholarships that international students can apply for. Some awards, like the President's Excellence Award, provide up to half (50%) of the tuition cost. Others, like the Trustee Scholarship, offer a set amount each year, on a case by case basis as it less common.
In terms of application requirements, the scholarships generally look at your academic achievements like your GPA and course rigor, as well as your extracurricular activities. Typically, there isn't a separate application for these scholarships - when you apply for admission, the university automatically considers you.
Remember though that scholarships won't cover all your expenses, and you should consider supplementing these awards with other sources of funding or considering your work options on campus. It's a good idea to check with your admissions officer for the most up-to-date and detailed information on the Sacred Heart's scholarships, as criteria and amounts can change from year to year.
