Note on scholarships & financial aid for Academy applicants:
- Applicants are automatically considered for Honors Program scholarships. In 2008, six incoming students earned Honors Program scholarships.
- For consideration for state and national financial aid AND for need-based scholarships, including the Husky Promise award, applicants must submit a FAFSA. Applicants should submit a FAFSA by the priority deadline (February 15, 2009) to be considered for the maximum amount of financial aid. Please note that this deadline is well before the Academy application deadline.
- Applicants are also encouraged to apply for local and national scholarships. Please note that the deadlines for many of these awards are in the early winter, well before the Academy application deadline. One scholarship to check out is the NASA Space Grant award.
