I'm planning to apply to Pratt University as an international student and wondering about scholarships I could apply for. Are there any specific to the school that international students have found helpful?
Pratt Institute has various scholarships for undergraduate and graduate international students. One of the most widely known is the Presidential Merit-Based Scholarships, where both domestic and international students can be considered. The university automatically considers all applicants for these scholarships, so you don't need to submit a separate application.
In addition to these, individual departments may have scholarships available for students, especially at the graduate level. Getting in touch with the department of your intended major can provide additional information about these opportunities.
Lastly, I recommend checking out online scholarship platforms like Appily for external scholarships that you might be eligible for as an international student. Many organizations offer scholarships to international students studying in the United States, so don't limit yourself to scholarships offered by Pratt itself.
Remember, while scholarships can significantly help in financing your education, Pratt also has a variety of financial aid options and work-study programs that might be worth looking into. It may also be helpful to connect with their Financial Aid Office for personalized guidance.
