Stout University Foundation

Scholarship Application

The Stout University Foundation sponsors scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students. Scholarships are not exclusively based on the applicant’s financial need; therefore, students need not be in a financial aid program. The Foundation awards scholarships totaling more than $500,000 for the benefit of Stout students. Stout Foundation scholarships are financed by the contributions of alumni, friends, parents, faculty, campus organizations, other Stout staff, foundations and corporations. Permanent scholarship funds may be established in the Foundation through bequests or special gifts. All gifts to the Stout University Foundation are tax deductible.

Criteria for Selection

No single factor will be responsible for an applicant receiving a scholarship. Factors which are considered include: academic performance, letter of recommendation, professional activities, extracurricular activities, community involvement, written statements, neatness and care in completing the application and, in many cases, financial need. Please note: To be considered for scholarships that are need based, you must file a FAFSA application by March 15.

Note: Both full-time and part-time students may apply. However, awards for students who are part-time (less than 12 credits for undergraduates and 6 credits for graduate students) will be prorated.

The Scholarship Committee will review applications and make the selections in the spring. Winners of scholarships for the 2008-2009 academic year will be notified by mail by May 1st. Recipients will be required to write a letter of appreciation to the scholarship donors and attend a formal award ceremony in September before payment is made for tuition.
