Most awards do not require a separate application, but some do. All students are considered for our merit awards following acceptance to Bethany. There is no separate scholarship application required for most merit awards and the awards are made on a rolling basis following acceptance to the College. However, some merit awards do have specific deadline dates. These forms are available through high school guidance offices and the college, respectively and you are strongly encouraged to submit these to the appropriate agencies as soon as possible.
Some families believe their income is the only item reviewed in determining aid eligibility.
Although income is a factor, many other items such as family size, assets, other family members in college, and medical expenses are considered. Please contact your Admission Counselor or our Financial Aid office if you have any questions regarding our scholarship programs or the financial aid process at Bethany. Need-based awards are also made on a rolling basis once the necessary information is received. A student must be accepted for admission to Bethany before any aid award is made. Preference is given, however, to those who complete the aid process by April 1.
