NISO, which is a part of the John Martinson Honors College, is here for all Purdue students. We are Purdue University's hub for 14 highly selective national and international awards, most of which require university nomination or endorsement. We coordinate the application, campus evaluation, and nomination processes from helping students learn about the scholarships, fellowships, and grants to submitting nominations to the granting foundations and programs. As a part of our mission, we
  • Inform students, faculty and staff about available scholarships and fellowships.
  • Help students find scholarships that match their goals and interests.
  • Guide students through their applications with info sessions, writing workshops, one-on-one meetings, mock interviews and all the details of scholarship competitions.
  • Work with faculty and staff to recommend and refer potential scholars as well as conduct campus reviews and applicant prep.
  • Coordinate Purdue’s Peace Corp Prep certificate program.

We encourage you to explore the major scholarships and fellowships NISO coordinates to learn more.
