About the Scholarship

Austin College pays $5,000 to $7,500 a year to physics and engineering students, and adds up to $4,000 for an approved summer research placement or internship.

The test requirement is less of an obstacle here than it looks: international applicants schooled outside English must submit test scores anyway, so the SAT mathematics threshold of 650 is not an extra hurdle.

The research stipend is the part worth planning around, since paid summer research is otherwise hard for an international student to arrange in a first year.

What It Covers

  • Tuition
  • Other

Between $5,000 and $7,500 a year, with a limited number available. Recipients may also receive a one-time stipend of up to $4,000 for an approved summer research or internship opportunity. Institutional scholarships may only be applied to tuition, and a student may receive only one institutional award in addition to the general academic scholarship. The college states it cannot review applications for autumn entry from international students received after 1 March.

Eligibility

A grade average of 3.5 or above with an SAT mathematics score of at least 650 or an ACT of at least 26 in mathematics and science, studying physics, engineering physics, engineering or the dual degree programme in engineering. Renewal needs a departmental endorsement.

Eligible Countries

The college states it reviews all applicants for merit scholarship awards, while noting it follows a need-aware admission policy for international students and cannot offer them need-based aid. That statement covers merit awards generally rather than naming this one.
