Scholarships and Internships

Read this College Guide for Black & African American Students to learn more about resources for support.

Check out "The Go-to Guide for College Financial Aid" to better understand the financial opportunities available to you (student loans, scholarships, grants, work-study, and more) and what is your best option.

We have assembled a list of scholarships, internships, and research tools that you may find helpful for financing and enhancing your academic journey. The opportunities presented here are a mix of those open to all students and those intended to benefit students of African descent. All are designed to help you reach your goals.

Keep in mind that each program will have its own guidelines and deadlines. If you need help tracking down or applying for scholarships and internships, our staff is always happy to help you with that process. Stop by the African Student Programs office at 133 Costo Hall, Monday–Friday, 9 a.m.–6 p.m. or give us a call.

There are lots of ways to finance your academic journey and expand your skillset along the way. We can help you find key scholarships and real-world experience opportunities that will help you reach your goals. The list below is updated once a quarter and each program/scholarship has their own respective deadlines. Feel free to contact any of our professional staff members for more information.
