The College of Arts and Sciences awards more than 200 scholarships each year to incoming freshmen and continuing students with a major in the Arts and Sciences.
Scholarships are awarded by the Dean’s Office and by many of the departments based on academic merit, financial need, extracurricular activities, leadership experience or other considerations. Eligibility and application requirements are listed in the scholarship details within the CU Boulder Scholarship Application.
The best way to apply for CU Boulder scholarships, including those in the College of Arts and Sciences, is by submitting the CU Boulder Scholarship Application.
This is a streamlined application that allows students to apply for multiple CU Boulder scholarships by completing a general application that includes questions about extracurricular activities, community service, leadership and work experience and a general essay. After submitting the general application, students may be prompted to complete supplemental questions, such as a special essay, for additional recommended scholarship opportunities.
Once you have submitted the general application, you can browse through recommended scholarships matched to you (labeled “Recommended”), all CU Boulder scholarships (labeled “Ours”), and even external scholarships (labeled “External”).
Don’t forget to follow-up on those additional recommended scholarships by completing supplemental questions and submitting any required supporting documents by the scholarship’s deadline.
