ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS

Syracuse University awards academic scholarships to eligible students based on the student's admission application. Selection is done by the Admissions Committee and eligibility is based upon a student's academic credentials, performance on standardized tests, class rank, portfolio or audition results (if relevant), community and extracurricular involvement, and overall citizenship and character.

• Founders' Scholarship ($12,000 per year)

• Chancellor's Scholarship ($8,000 per year)

• Dean's Scholarship ($6,000 per year)

Students who receive a University-funded scholarship beginning with the fall 2007 semester, must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.75. Students who received University-funded scholarships prior to the fall 2007 semester, must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.5. In addition, all students must complete at least 12 credits per semester to continue to be eligible to receive University-funded scholarships.

Freshmen have three semesters to meet the grade point average requirement, and transfer students have two semesters. If a recipient's GPA falls below the required GPA, a University-funded scholarship will not be renewed.
