Award Details
- Eligibility
New incoming undergraduate students qualify for the Presbyterian Promise Scholarship by indicating their membership in a Presbyterian church, or their attendance at a Presbyterian secondary school, on their application.
- Terms
This scholarship may not be combined with other merit scholarships. The total financial aid award, including federal, state, and private scholarships, may not exceed direct costs. If you qualify for any merit scholarship worth more than $24,000 per year, you’ll receive the larger financial award instead, as it already exceeds our minimum commitment.
