Scholarships
Each year, more than 1,200 undergraduate and graduate students benefit from university scholarships totaling more than $3 million. Typical scholarship awards range in value from $100 to $5,000 in academic year support and include both merit- and need-based opportunities. Each award is made possible by our generous donors who understand the value a scholarship represents in making college affordable and equipping students to achieve their goals.
Students who may benefit from need-based scholarships should also consider completing the Free Application for Federal Financial Aid (FAFSA) since data from the FAFSA is used to verify eligibility for need-based financial scholarships.

External Scholarships
Students may qualify for third-party scholarships through companies, foundations, civic and religious organizations, their parents'/family's employers, and their own employer's tuition benefits. High school counselors, GAfutures and other free internet sites are excellent resources for researching and applying for these opportunities. Please note that third-party scholarships may factor into your overall eligibility for financial aid and Columbus State-based university scholarships.
