Description
Due to our generous donors, the School of Environmental and Forest Sciences has a robust undergraduate scholarship program for BSE/SBSE and ESRM majors. Scholarships range from $800 to $10,000, depending on the applicant pool and match with funds available each year. These funds are awarded based on merit and/or need (as indicated by the FAFSA or WASFA). The funds are directly deposited to your student account on a quarterly basis (Autumn, Winter, Spring) before the tuition due date (which is generally the third week of the quarter) after full-time (12 credits) enrollment is verified. Scholarships cannot be applied to summer quarter. Students, including those that have previously received a SEFS scholarship, must apply annually for the following academic year. Awards must be used within the award quarter and year as designated in award letters sent to recipients.
