As a prospective student, don’t leave money on the table. First-year, full-time students can apply to receive one of six full-tuition scholarships, awarded each year for up to four years. The deadline to apply is 11:59 p.m., December 31.
This scholarship program recognizes students from all over the world for their exceptional academics, extra-curricular activities, and for being generally well-rounded individuals. In addition to students from states like Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Utah, recent recipients include students from Ireland, Morocco, and Canada. Recipients also receive access to honors seminars and courses.
Applicants need to have a 3.7 unweighted academic GPA to apply. A committee will review high school transcripts, academic profiles, letters of recommendation, personal statements, and a 500-750-word essay based on a prompt.
Those finalists not selected as an Elmira Scholar will be eligible for a $28,000 Trustee Scholarship. The Trustee Scholarship replaces all other Elmira College Scholarships, Grants, and Awards. Also, New York State residents may be eligible for the Soaring Eagles Take Flight Initiative, where Elmira College will cover out-of-pocket costs for undergraduate tuition and mandatory fees. Pennsylvania residents may qualify for the Good Neighbor or Northern Tier Advantage. Visit our Scholarships & Awards page for details.
Current high school students interested in applying should complete the Application for Admission and the Elmira Scholars Application through the EC Online Portal.
