Academic Scholarships

Academic scholarships are administered by a number of different offices within the University.

1. The Office of Admissions administers a variety of different scholarships for first-time-in-college students. All first-time-in-college students interested in academic and minority scholarships should contact the Admissions Office directly.

2. The Office of Adult and transfer Student Services administers a variety of different scholarships for transfer students. All transfer students interested in academic and minority scholarships should contact the Office of Adult and Transfer Student Services directly.

3. All financial aid applicants are automatically considered for scholarships administered through the Office of Financial Aid, if applications are completed by the priority application dates published each year in the Financial Aid Guide.

4. The individual colleges of the University (the College of Business, the College of Education, etc.) administer some scholarships directly through the Dean’s Office in each college. New students and transfer students are advised to contact the USF Admissions Office or the Office of Adult and Transfer Student Services first, and then the individual colleges regarding scholarship opportunities.

5. For non-Florida residents, a limited number of out-of-state tuition waivers are available based on academic performance. New students and continuing students are eligible to apply for these awards. New students will be considered for the waiver based on their performance in high school or transfer institution. Continuing USF students will be considered for the waiver based on cumulative academic performance at USF. For information contact the Scholarship Coordinator in the Office of Admissions.

First-time-in-college students with general inquiries regarding scholarships should contact the Scholarship Coordinator in the Office of Admissions.

Transfer students with general inquiries regarding scholarships should contact the Office of Adult and Transfer Student Services.

Currently enrolled students should contact the individual college in which they are registered or access information through the Office of Financial Aid Web page.
