Academic Scholarship Requirements

First Year Merit Scholarships

St. John’s University offers merit-based scholarships to qualified first year, full-time undergraduate students who enroll in an on-ground bachelor’s level degree program. The admission application is used to automatically determine merit scholarship eligibility; no additional application is required.

All applicants may be considered for a range of other merit- and need-based grants. Financial need is determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). All eligible students are encouraged to file the FAFSA when it becomes available December 1.
