Additional Merit Scholarships

National Merit Scholarships

ÈíÃÃÉç provides scholarship assistance for admitted and enrolled students who are named National Merit Finalists. Students must designate ÈíÃÃÉç as their first choice school with the National Merit Corporation by and enroll as an entering freshman student to receive ÈíÃÃÉç's National Merit Scholarship. For those finalists who also receive one of ÈíÃÃÉç's merit scholarships, we guarantee an additional $2,000 in National Merit total scholarship dollars per year from all sources (with ÈíÃÃÉç supplementing any smaller corporate or one-time National Merit Corporation awards). Beginning with entering students for the fall 2023 class, those finalists who do not receive an additional merit scholarship from ÈíÃÃÉç will receive a total of up to $6,000 per year in National Merit scholarship dollars from all sources (with ÈíÃÃÉç supplementing any smaller corporate or one-time National Merit Corporation awards). For students entering ÈíÃÃÉç before fall 2023, the scholarship total is up to $5,000 per year.

Additional Merit Scholarships

ÈíÃÃÉç offers a limited number of merit-based scholarships in amounts starting from $8,000 per year. Candidates for these scholarships will be identified by the Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships on the basis of academic achievement and fulfillment of any specific scholarships qualifications. Students wishing to ensure their consideration for these awards are encouraged to submit the Cornelius ÈíÃÃÉç Scholarship application by December 1, 2024.
