About the Scholarship

Susquehanna University considers every admitted international applicant for up to $45,000 a year, renewable at the same amount for up to eight terms.

One condition excludes a whole category of applicant, and it is easy to miss: students funded by a government or third-party sponsor are not eligible for the university's merit awards at all. The university names American Councils, AMIDEAST and the Brazil Science Mobility Programme among those sponsorships.

There is also a procedural trap. The international financial aid form is not optional and not late-stage: the university will not review an application for admission until it is submitted. Note its domestic ceiling of $47,000 is higher; international students cap at $45,000.

What It Covers

Tuition

Up to $45,000 a year, renewable at the same amount while satisfactory academic progress and full-time enrolment are maintained, for up to eight terms. Tuition alone is $63,500 and the total estimated cost $88,881. The university states no full-cost awards are available and that it offers no need-based aid to international students. The figure is published under a 2026 to 2027 heading.

Eligibility

Entry as a first-year or transfer student. Awards rest primarily on academic achievement: grades, the strength of the academic programme, TOEFL or IELTS scores, and SAT scores where submitted. Students who are sponsored by a government or third party are not eligible.

Eligible Countries

The university states it considers all admitted international applicants for academic or merit-based scholarships, and that it offers merit scholarships to qualified international students who are offered admission.
