Patron Scholarships are funds donated to the university from a variety of sources. These funds come from private individuals, clubs, foundations, memorials, and local organizations. Each Donor has established the scholarship and the eligibility criteria. The selection of recipients is the responsibility of the Performing Aid and Scholarship Committee. This committee has entrusted the daily responsibility to the Scholarship Office. Patron Scholarships are not automatically renewed. Applicants must reapply each year by the March 1st deadline in order to be considered for funding the next year. Donors may change awards or may not renew their scholarship the next year.
