The Clark Scholarship

The Clark Scholarship provides support for students participating in the A. James Clark Scholars program. The Clark Scholars Program is an invitation-only program for exceptional, high-achieving students who exhibit a passion for “making a difference”. Invitations are extended only at the time of admission. This scholarship is renewable for eight full-time undergraduate semesters providing the scholar continues to meet the academic and service requirements of the program, full-time enrollment, satisfactory academic progress, and a minimum GPA of 3.2. As eligibility for the Clark Scholars Program has a financial need component, Clark Scholars are required to file both the FAFSA and the CSS Profile by the established deadlines each year.

The ROTC Matching Scholarship

Stevens students who receive ROTC Scholarships of $7,500 or more will receive an additional supplemental scholarship from Stevens. This additional amount will be the full difference between the ROTC Scholarship (plus any other merit scholarships and grants) and the cost of tuition. This scholarship is only available during semesters in which you are eligible to receive the ROTC Scholarship.

Global Scholarship

Stevens grants a limited number of Global Scholarships each year to international students for exceptional academic merit. International students who wish to be considered for institutional scholarship must submit the CSS PROFILE on the College Board website. We will notify you if you receive a Global Scholarship.
