Great Scholarships for international students at Grand Valley State University

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Every year, Grand Valley awards a limited number of International Merit Scholarships to incoming international students who have demonstrated an outstanding academic achievement record. The value of this scholarship is $5,000 per year.

All students who submit a complete application for admission by May 1 are eligible for this merit-based scholarship. In addition, students must write an essay of approximately 1,000 words on the following topic: “What will I do to bring cultural and international perspectives to Grand Valley that will enhance the learning environment for the entire GVSU community?”

Typically, qualified students have a minimum 3.0 grade point average, but decisions are based on academic credentials, the scholarship essay and information provided in the application materials. Transfer students from U.S. four-year colleges and universities, and students being fully funded by their government are not eligible.

Renewal: Undergraduate students must maintain a 2.85 grade point average, maintain full-time enrollment, and maintain valid immigration status. Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 grade point average, maintain full-time enrollment, and valid immigration status.
