The scholarship process for all undergraduates and all scholarships (both major specific ones and all general scholarships) begins with 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Panther Scholarship Portal<\/a>. <\/p>\r\n

How and when to apply:<\/h2>\r\n
  1. Log into the portal and your general application. This must be done a minimum of once per school year but we recommend doing this twice a year in November and February.<\/li>\r\n
  2. In the portal, complete the Letters & Science scholarship application. Here is where you will upload a copy of your transcript (also recommended to be done in November and February).
    \r\n
    Completing steps 1 and 2 will match you to most scholarships based on the information you enter.<\/li>\r\n
  3. You may see scholarships on your Panther Scholarship Portal dashboard that you can \u201cApply To.\u201d These are scholarships which require additional information beyond steps 1 and 2. Complete any of these you wish to apply for. <\/li><\/ol>\r\n

    The Panther Scholarship Portal can also be used to find non-51ÁÔÆæ (private) scholarships<\/a> that have registered with 51ÁÔÆæ. These may be scholarships sponsored by local or national organizations, fraternal clubs or other companies outside of 51ÁÔÆæ.<\/p>\r\n

    Students are responsible for reading and understanding \r\n 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s policies regarding scholarship applications<\/a>. \r\n Please pay particular attention to the section on the use of AI (such as Chat GPT).<\/p>\r\n
