APPLY NOW! Clark University First-Year Scholarships for International Students 2025
Clark Merit Scholarships
Clark University offers a variety of merit and achievement-based scholarships. All applicants are automatically considered for these scholarships. There is no need for a separate application.
We give top consideration to students who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance and personal qualities during their secondary school years. The scholarship decisions are solely based on information presented in the admission application, without consideration of financial need. International students who may qualify for scholarships are still expected to demonstrate the ability to cover a significant percentage of the cost of their education. Admitted students who receive a merit-based scholarship will be notified alongside their admissions decision.
Presidential Scholarship (additional application required)
The Presidential Scholarship is a highly esteemed scholarship awarded to approximately five exceptional students annually. It recognizes individuals who stand out due to their outstanding academic achievements and leadership potential, placing them among the top applicants to Clark.
This scholarship covers full tuition, as well as on-campus room and board for all four years, regardless of a family’s financial situation.
How to apply
To apply for the Presidential Scholarship, indicate your interest by selecting the corresponding option when you complete the Common Application or Coalition Application with Scoir.
After indicating your interest, you will receive detailed information on how to complete your scholarship application.
A small group of students may be selected as finalists to interview in January from the Early Decision I and Early Action rounds. A second round of finalists will be selected to interview in March. All students will receive an update on their status for the scholarship by the end of March.
The Admissions Committee selects finalists based on the strength of their admission applications and other specific criteria identified by the committee.
