JMU Foundation Scholarships Awarded by Financial Aid


For scholarships awarded by our office, you may review selection criteria.

Both academic merit and financial need may be factors in the selection process. To receive consideration for need-based scholarships, you must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in addition to the scholarship application. The first day you can submit your 2008-09 FAFSA is January 1, 2008, but you must file by March 1, 2008 to receive priority consideration for need-based assistance.
