Private Scholarship Reporting

Each year many Purdue students are awarded scholarships by private (outside) sources such as high schools, civic organizations, charitable foundations, businesses, etc. All awards from sources outside Purdue must be reported to the Division of Financial Aid to ensure your financial aid is awarded accurately.

You may report your private scholarships by following these steps:

1. Log in to your myPurdue account.
2. Select the "Financial Tab".
3. Then click on "Award for Aid Year" under the Quick Links column to the left side.
4. Select the current aid year from the drop-down box.
5. Select the "Resources/Additional Information" tab and report your private scholarships and fee remissions.

If you are notified of additional private scholarships at a later time, please remember to log in to your myPurdue account to report them.

For your information, private scholarship checks should be mailed to:

Purdue University
Bursar - Outside Awards
610 Purdue Mall
West Lafayette, IN 47907-2040.

Please give this address to your donor. If you receive a check directly from the donor, please endorse it and mail it to the above address.

If the donor requires a verification of enrollment, please submit a written request to:

Purdue University
Office of the Registrar
Hovde Hall of Administration
610 Purdue Mall
West Lafayette, IN 47907-2040.

If the donor requests information about your financial aid, please submit their form and written permission for release of information to our office:

Purdue University Division of Financial Aid
Schleman Hall of Student Services, Room 305
475 Stadium Mall Dr.
West Lafayette, IN 47907-2050

For your information, all awards greater than $600 are divided evenly and one-half applied to each semester (fall and spring) unless noted otherwise by the donor. Your financial aid package may be adjusted if you receive scholarships/grants from outside/private donors. Such items as the Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Stafford Loan, and Federal Parent PLUS Loan may be reduced. A revised eligibility notice will be sent noting any financial aid eligibility changes.
