Major-Specific Scholarship Opportunities
Many of APSU's colleges and academic departments award scholarships to students enrolled in specific programs of study. These scholarships are funded by private donors and departmental resources, and eligibility is typically tied to your declared major, academic performance within your field, or involvement in your department.
How to Find Major-Specific Scholarships
Search the APSU Scholarship Application
The most complete list of available departmental and major-specific scholarships is in the online scholarship application. Every student is encouraged to apply.
Scholarships in the APSU Scholarship Application follow that application's deadline. Some departments also award scholarships on their own schedule. Most departmental scholarships are awarded in the summer before the fall semester, so apply early.
Contact Your Department
Some departmental scholarships are awarded directly by academic departments and may not appear in the online application. Contact your department's advising office or chair to ask about scholarship opportunities specific to your major.
General and Departmental Scholarship Application
