Apply for Saint Paul College Scholarships
Saint Paul College offers various scholarship opportunities for fall, spring, and summer terms. Each year the college awards over $300,000 in scholarships to more than 300 students. Unlike a student loan, a scholarship is a gift that is not paid back.
Each year the Friends of Saint Paul College Foundation raises money from private donors to support students’ educational aspirations by providing scholarship assistance.
Our online scholarship system makes it easy as you only need to complete one application each semester.

Most of the Saint Paul College scholarships are made possible by donations from kind and thoughtful individuals. If you receive a scholarship from Saint Paul College, we ask you to write a thank you letter/note to the donor. Instructions will be provided on how to do this online. You will also be invited to attend a scholarship reception on campus where donors enjoy the chance to meet you briefly. We strongly recommend that you make arrangements to attend these receptions which typically last one hour. You will receive details after your award about the reception.
