A number of scholarship funds have been established at the College through the generosity of alumni, parents, friends, corporations, and foundations. Most of these scholarships and special awards were created by endowment gifts or bequests, though some are maintained through annual support from the donor.  Unless otherwise specified, endowed scholarships are awarded to undergraduate students and require full-time enrollment.

The growing number of these funds provides an increasing source of support for deserving students. Scholarships are usually awarded annually and in accordance with the intent of the donor. For those who have financial need as a factor in determining eligibility, it is calculated based on institutional policy.
