| Scholarship information is divided in three sections: | ||||
How to pay for college |
||||
| Institutional Scholarships include, but are not limited to: New Freshman Scholarship, New Transfer Scholarship, UHD Full-Time Student Scholarship, Deans Scholarship, and Red Rose Leadership Scholarship. These programs are funded by several methods, including outside private donations. | ||||
| Departmental Scholarships are selected at the department levels, but the actual student awarding and administration is handled within the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. | ||||
| Private & External Scholarships include programs which flow through our process. These programs are also selected by outside mechanisms, but are ultimately included in the financial aid/scholarship process. Scholarships awarded by organizations outside UHD will be disbursed according to guidelines provided by the donor organization. | ||||
| Once scholarships awards have been disbursed to your student account, it will be available for credit towards your tuition and fee bill. If you are awarded funds in excess of your tuition and fee bill, a credit will apply to your Higher One card or a check will be mailed to your home address by the UHD Student Accounting Office. | ||||
| IMPORTANT: Your financial aid from all sources cannot exceed the cost of attendance established by the University. If you receive a scholarship, whether it is from the college or from a private source, you should notify the Financial Aid Office. We are required to review your aid package to make sure that you are not receiving more aid than your total cost of attendance. In many cases we are able to include your scholarship or grant without adjusting any of your other aid, increasing the total amount of your aid package. However, sometimes we have to reduce or replace another form of aid. In that case, we always attempt to reduce or replace any loans that you might have been offered first. We strongly encourage you to explore all scholarship opportunities as valuable means to help finance your college education. | ||||
