All scholarships listed are awarded based on merit, not need. There are two types of scholarships: Academic Scholarships and Additional Scholarships. Students may receive one academic and one or more additional scholarships, not to exceed total tuition.
Hamline University encourages students to apply for outside/private scholarships. Hamline does not reduce Hamline scholarship and grant dollars when a student receives outside/private dollars.
