Chapter Scholarship Application and Selection
Applications for scholarships are available through the student application for admission after receiving admittance to MSU. Students who complete the scholarship information after admittance to Mississippi State will automatically be considered if the criteria is met.
The University Scholarship Committee administers the scholarship program at Mississippi State University. Financial need may be used as consideration in selection. Any scholarships will be awarded on a year-to-year basis.
Awards will be based on funds available. Funds will not be given directly to the recipients; rather, the university business office will credit the recipients' tuition and fees expenses each semester.
