Purdue Scholarships 2013-14

Important Deadlines

November 15

Purdue University awards most of its merit scholarships to qualified freshmen based on academic information provided with admission applications that are complete by November 15, 2012.

February 1

Purdue colleges, schools, and departments award a limited number of scholarships with a financial need component. To be considered for these scholarships, admitted students need to complete the Purdue Scholarship Application by February 1 and the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by March 1.  

There are other Purdue scholarships that require a separate application with a February 15th due date.

March 1

We encourage all students to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by March 1 in order to maximize consideration for all federal, state, and institutional funds they may be eligible to receive. The Purdue University Division of Financial Aid awards need-based scholarships to students who demonstrate certain levels of financial need and complete the FAFSA by March 1.

Purdue College, School, Department Scholarship Information

If you submit a Purdue Scholarship Application, the college/school that you are admitted to will notify you of any award selections in the spring. Additionally, admitted students will be able to view any award selections on the financial aid notice sent via mail to freshmen and available online on the myPurdue site in early April. Note that if you are not selected for a college/school need-based award you will not receive any special notification.
