About the Scholarship

Rockhurst University's Dean's Scholarship is the 3.3 GPA band of its automatic freshman merit scale, worth $22,000 a year towards tuition at the rate published for autumn 2026 to spring 2027.

Completing the admission application is the whole process. The award comes with the admission decision, weighted GPAs count where your transcript shows them, and a stronger first-semester senior year transcript can lift you into a higher band.

International applicants can receive it. Rockhurst publishes a $14,000 to $28,000 merit range for international undergraduates and confirms that state and federal aid is unavailable to them, so housing, fees and travel need family funding. Autumn entry applications from abroad are due 1 June.

The award renews against Rockhurst's published requirements and cannot be held alongside one of the competitive or academic scholarships.

What It Covers

  • Tuition

A tuition award of $22,000 for each academic year, at the rate published for autumn 2026 to spring 2027. Institutional awards cannot exceed the cost of tuition, so housing, fees and travel stay with the student.

Eligibility

First-time incoming first-year students with a 3.3 GPA. Weighted GPAs are used where the transcript provides them, and the seventh-semester transcript is the last one reviewed for an upgrade to a higher band. Rockhurst states that international undergraduate applicants may be eligible for merit scholarships of $14,000 to $28,000, and that international students cannot receive state or federal aid. Renewal follows the published scholarship renewal requirements, and a student cannot hold both a competitive and an academic scholarship.

How to Apply

Automatic with the admission application, decided alongside the admission decision. International applicants apply through the Common Application or the Rockhurst online application with a counsellor recommendation, English proficiency documentation and a course-by-course credential evaluation, by 1 June for autumn entry.
