Scholarships for Incoming First-Year Students
Some scholarships for incoming first-year students require an additional, separate application. Others are awarded automatically based on the materials in your undergraduate application for admission and/or the financial information on your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). See the chart below for an overview, as well as links to scholarship details and their online application.
Apply for UO Scholarships
The UO Scholarship Dashboard is your entry point for scholarships offered by the UO Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships, and for select colleges and departments.
Before applying for scholarships, you must submit an application for admission to the University of Oregon. If you are already an enrolled student, skip to step 3.
Within days of applying for admission, you can find your UO Student ID number in your Status Portal. You’ll need this number to create an account to apply for UO scholarships.
