Clarkson Adds New Scholarships to Cover All Tuition Costs for 10 students!

Clarkson University is excited to announce another new scholarship opportunity for students — the Clarkson Ignite Presidential Fellowship program. This is a merit-based scholarship covering all tuition costs for 10 first-time students entering Clarkson in fall 2020 for four years (eight semesters) of undergraduate study.  

Applying for this award is easy! In fact, students only need to do TWO things:

• First, they must apply to Clarkson for Early Decision OR Regular Decision.
• Second, students must submit either a 200-word essay or 2- to 3-minute video on the following topic: Clarkson students strive to ignite their passions and turn them into innovations with impact. What passion(s) will you ignite at Clarkson? What innovation(s) do you dream of and what impact will it (they) have on the world? (You will receive instructions on how to apply for scholarships and special financing options once you apply to Clarkson University.)
   

For students applying for Early Decision (deadline December 1, 2019), the Clarkson Ignite Presidential Fellowship application is due by December 15, 2019. For those applying for Regular Decision, the due date is January 15, 2020.

Twenty-five (25) finalists will be selected and notified by February 15, 2020. At that time, finalists will be invited to interview either on campus, via virtual meeting, or by phone before final decisions are made.

With this new scholarship opportunity and the many others we have announced this fall, there has never been a better time for students to become Golden Knights and take advantage of our already incredible return on investment!
