Methodist University offers a variety of Endowed
Scholarships. All endowed scholarships are awarded annually
to full time degree-seeking Day students completing their first
bachelor’s degree and are not necessarily renewed every year
to the same student. The scholarships are awarded by the Financial
Aid Director and, in some instances by a particular department on
campus, and are awarded until the funds are exhausted. Some of the
endowed scholarships may not be available every year due to lack
of funds. The general eligibility requirements are listed for each
endowed scholarship. If a student meets the eligibility requirements
for that particular scholarship, it is not guaranteed the student
will receive that scholarship. Amounts of the endowed scholarship
vary depending on whether the student lives off campus or resides
on campus and WILL be reduced if a student, who
is receiving an endowed scholarship, moves from on campus to off
campus. In the event a student drops below full time status or withdraws
during the semester, the endowed scholarship(s) will be taken away.
