Continuing Students:

The application (available online in January on the Student Advising home page.) is due in the Engineering Advising Center (ENGR 314A) by the last day of January.To see the variety of scholarships available go to Scholarship Information. Students need not list the specific scholarships when applying. The committee considers everyone for everything. Most scholarships go to juniors and seniors (those in the Professional Program).

 

  • One scholarship is available for women in Engineering. It is the Corbett Scholarship. Several small ($100 - $500) scholarships are given to sophomore, junior, or senior women majoring in engineering each spring.Applications are available in the fall semester, due in November.

Transfer Students:

  • Scholarships for the next school year are awarded each spring. So whether you plan to transfer in August or January, you must apply in the previous January. The application (available online in January only on the Student Advising home page.) is due in the Engineering Advising Center by the last day of January.To see the variety of scholarships available go to Scholarship Information. Students need not list the specific scholarships when applying. The committee considers everyone for everything.Most scholarships go to juniors and seniors (those in the Professional Program). So transfer students must be close to finishing the first two years of their major.

  • The University offers scholarships to transfer students. Information about qualifications and deadlines is available for Resident Transfer Scholarships and Nonresident Transfer Scholarships. These are usually worth more than College of Engineering scholarships. Admission, Scholarship,Application fee deadlines, and SAT/ACT Admissions Index information can be found here.

  • Incoming Freshmen:

    Your application to the University is also your scholarhsip application for University scholarships. Go to http://www.usu.edu/admissions/scholarships for their criteria.



    That application also puts you in the database which the College of Engineering can access. We have a few scholarships for freshmen. We pull you from the database and solicit further information from you if you meet the minimum requirements, typically a graduate from a certain high school. You will not be selected for consideration unless your major is one of ours. So be sure to specify some major in engineering.
     
  • There is one scholarship, the Don and Melba Corbett Scholarship, for incoming freshman women in engineering. The application is available online October - January on the Student Advising home page.
