College of Sciences Scholarships

The College of Sciences offers scholarships under three main categories, each with its own application. Most scholarships are awarded based on financial need and we strongly encourage all students to have a completed FAFSA.  Our scholarships have limited funding and are competitive; meeting the base qualifications does not guarantee an award. Many of our scholarships require students be enrolled at full-time status (minimum 12 credit hours) and remain in good standing for the award period. Recipients of scholarships may be required to acknowledge their award by writing a letter of thanks to the donor. Some scholarships are targeted to first-generation college students, meaning neither custodial parent or legal guardian has earned a college degree. 

The application period opens annually in late Spring with scholarships awarded for the following Fall semester. We highly recommend students give considerable thought to the questions in the applications and write a draft for any requiring short answers before submitting the completed application. 

Many of our scholarships are generously supported by alumni and friends of the College of Sciences.We are truly grateful for their dedication to our mission and for the meaningful role they play in helping our students reach their academic goals.

HealthCare Mentoring Scholarship

This scholarship is part of a grant awarded through the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana Foundation, targeted to undergraduate students pursuing a bachelor of sciences degree and with a declared interest in a career in healthcare.  Recipients will receive $2000/semester towards costs of attendance for Fall and Spring ($4000 total/academic year), attend professional and career development workshops, and must serve as a peer mentor to 1-3 incoming students interested in healthcare. To be eligible, students must be a first-generation college student (i.e., neither parent or legal guardian has completed a college degree) and be enrolled in a 4-year degree and a sub-plan with a healthcare focus (Pre-Medical; Pre-Dental; Pre-Veterinary; Pre-Occupational Therapy; Pre-Optometry; Pre-Physical Therapy; and Pre-Physician Assistant). This scholarship can be retained as long as certain requirements are met and students remain in good standing.
