International Student Scholarships

SCHOLARSHIP INSTRUCTIONS

In addition to academic merit, the scholarship committee considers students' contributions to their schools and communities through activities and service. St. Joseph's University applies a holistic approach to determine scholarship eligibility including a review of class grades, curriculum, exam scores, leadership experience and letters of recommendation. 3rd-party credential evaluation agencies, such as World Education Services, can assist in converting your institution's grade point average into the U.S. grading system, as well as establish U.S. degree equivalency. Please note that scholarships cannot be determined until after you apply for admission. Students will be informed of their scholarship eligibility with their offer of admission. Please email the admissions department if you require more details.
