Benedictine awards Institutional Scholarships to all incoming freshman and transfer students each year in merit scholarships and need-based grants on an annual basis. These merit scholarships and need-based grants are automatically awarded to you upon completion of your application through Admissions and Financial Aid offices. These scholarships have no “Apply” button. Scholarships requiring an application are clearly marked and an “Apply” button is provided to the application.
