Scholarships and Financial Aid
|
Pott Engineering Scholarships provide financial assistance for students majoring in engineering at
the University of Southern Indiana. Awards are made to eligible freshman and transfer students, and are renewable if the student continues to meet the scholarship's criteria and funding is available.
Pott Engineering Scholarships are awarded solely on the basis of interest in the engineering career field and demonstrated academic ability.
Recipients of Pott Engineering Scholarships may receive other forms of academic recognition and financial assistance for which they are qualified without jeopardizing their eligibility.
