Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone knows about scholarship opportunities at Sewanee University? I'm scoping it out for my college list and wanted to check financing options beforehand. Also, are these scholarships mostly need-based or are there some merit-based ones available too?
Sewanee University, properly known as The University of the South, offers a variety of scholarships to incoming freshmen. Their financial aid is a mix of need-based and merit-based awards.
In terms of need-based aid, Sewanee meets 100% of demonstrated need for all admitted students. You should complete the FAFSA and CSS Profile to be considered for this funding.
Regarding merit-based scholarships, the University offers The Vice-Chancellor's Scholarship, The Wilkins Scholarship, The Benedict Scholarship, and The EQB Scholarship.
Then there's the Sewanee Guarantee, where the university ensures funding for a summer internship or research fellowship.
So it seems Sewanee has a variety of scholarship opportunities, both merit and need-based, that you can explore. Remember that merit-based scholarships usually require no extra application, but some like the EQB might, so keep an eye on any additional requirements or deadlines.
