Scholarships

Undergraduate freshman, transfer, and international applicants are automatically screened for an academic scholarship once they have been admitted.

JU Academic Scholarship

Students are automatically screened for an academic scholarship once they have been admitted to JU. The academic scholarship ranges between $10,000 and $25,000 per year for traditional undergraduate students and is based on a holistic matrix of the student’s cumulative GPA and test scores, if submitted, coupled with class ranking and high school ranking.

JU Talent Scholarship

The talent scholarship is for students who are interested in majoring in one of our Fine Arts programs. An audition or portfolio review is required for program consideration. If you are admitted into the program, you may be awarded a talent scholarship in addition to your academic scholarship. To find out more about audition dates, please visit www.ju.edu/cfa/auditions-and-portfolio-reviews.
