Endowed Scholarships

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.
