University of Vermont
The Presidential Scholarship is the University of Vermont's top merit award for students coming from outside the state. It pays between $20,000 and $30,000 a year toward the cost of attendance.
Selection happens automatically from the admission application, so there is nothing extra to submit. Recipients keep the award by enrolling in at least 12 credits a semester and holding a 3.0 cumulative grade average, checked at the end of the spring term.
An annual award of $20,000 to $30,000 applied toward the cost of attendance. Living costs are not separately covered.
Out-of-state first-year applicants with the highest academic performance in their admission application. Vermont does not publish a grade or test cutoff. International applicants are considered as out-of-state students.
The university publishes this award on its scholarships page for prospective out-of-state and international students, and awards it to admitted out-of-state first-year students. An international applicant is out-of-state by definition.
No separate application. Every out-of-state first-year applicant is considered from the admission application, and awards are announced with the admission offer. Renewal needs at least 12 credits a semester and a 3.0 cumulative grade average.
Consideration is linked to admission. Confirm the applicable admission deadline and any scholarship requirements with the university.
