The University of Denver offers a variety of scholarships to support students financially. Merit-based scholarships, such as the Chancellor Scholarship and Dean Scholarship, reward academic excellence. Need-based aid, including the Pioneer Need Grant, assists students with demonstrated financial need.
Departmental scholarships are available for specific majors, while athletic scholarships support student-athletes. The university also participates in federal programs like the Pell Grant. International students may qualify for the Global Scholar Award. Applicants are automatically considered for many scholarships upon admission, but some require separate applications. Deadlines and eligibility criteria vary, so checking the university’s financial aid website is recommended.
