Freshman Scholarships
Automatic UNF Merit-Based Scholarships

Scholarship Consideration Deadline for Summer/Fall 2013 Freshmen: November 16, 2012  

    The University of North Florida believes that your hard work should pay off. We offer a wide range of merit-based scholarships for qualifying students. Many of these scholarships are limited in number so it is important that you apply early. Each eligible student may receive only one of the noted merit-based Admissions scholarships.

     

    These scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis to qualifying students. All first-time-in-college applicants are automatically considered for these awards so no supplemental application is required. There are additional merit-based scholarships requiring an essay submission. Please keep in mind that students receiving an automatic merit-based scholarship will be considered for these additional awards on an upgrade basis and their awards will not be combined for a total higher value. Current and transfer students are not eligible to receive these scholarships. 

     

    The scholarship qualifications listed below reflect anticipated standards and award values for the 2013 incoming freshman class. Minimum qualifications and award amounts are subject to change.
