Scholarship Rules
Scholarship winners will be selected by a scholarship committee of admissions professionals and teaching faculty at Roberts Wesleyan University. Each Impact Scholarship winner will be awarded funds up to full tuition (FAFSA must be submitted). Winners will be notified end of June, 2026.
Scholarship winners must apply and enroll as full-time students in their chosen program starting in Fall of 2026. The scholarship requires the recipient to remain their education program or major at Roberts. The total of all grants and scholarships (including federal Pell and NYS TAP) cannot exceed 100% of tuition. For applicants, the scholarship cannot be combined with any other Roberts aid including scholarships, grants, and partnership discounts. Roberts faculty, staff, and dependents are not eligible for the scholarship.
