Undergraduate Students

In 2012-13, Whitworth will administer a wide range of scholarships, grants, work-study funds, and federal loans. You may qualify for scholarships or grants based on your academic performance, your financial need, or your talents in the fine and/or performing arts, forensics and journalism. Some of the financial-aid sources available include:

• Whitworth Alumni Scholarships, valued at $1,000 per year, awarded to incoming students who are dependents of Whitworth alumni.

• Whitworth's Diversity Scholarships of $2,000 per year for students from underrepresented racial and ethnic populations as well as for students who have had significant cross-cultural experiences.

• Whitworth's Church Matching Scholarships for recipients of scholarships from their local Christian church (up to $500 match per year).

• Whitworth offers scholarships in partnership with a number of outside organizations, including the National Merit Scholarship program, the National Presbyterian Scholarship Program, the Washington Scholars Program, the Spokane Scholars Program and others.

• Need-based grants for students with demonstrated financial need (based on the federal FAFSA) from federal, state and university grant funds.

• Whitworth has 1,000 on-campus jobs available for students.

• Whitworth participates in Federal Direct Loan Programs. Students and parents can borrow directly from the federal government once Whitworth has awarded such resources based on the FAFSA.

• Outside scholarships can be found through a wide variety of corporate and community organizations. Check with your high school or community college counselor and visit Whitworth's scholarship web page
