College of Education Scholarships

The College of Education offers college-level scholarships to both undergraduate and graduate students who are majoring in one of our departments. In many instances, students also need to complete application materials on the UNT Student Financial Aid & Scholarships web site. We recommend applying separately for scholarships at the university, college, and departmental level to cast as wide a net as possible for your award potential.

You can pull all scholarships offered by COE in the scholarship portal by searching "College of Education" once logging in with your student account. Please carefully read eligibility and submission requirements for each scholarship before applying. NOTE: Award amounts vary based on available funding.

University-wide scholarships available here!

A list of Departmental Scholarships that are offered is listed below, apply through UNT's Eagle Scholarship portal.
