Scholarship Opportunities

More than 90 percent of students receive financial assistance at Baylor. As part of that support, the Honors College annually awards nearly $1 million in endowed scholarships to incoming and current students, with an average award amount between $1,000 to $5,000. Honors College scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic records and need.  

Scholarship Application Details

  • Fall 2025 Students: All Round 1 and Round 2 recipients have been notified via email and/or posted to students' accounts. If you completed the Honors College Decision Form to confirm your acceptance to the Honors College (or if you were listed as a Great Texts major) by 3/1 or 4/1, you were considered for scholarship funds. If you have not received an email and/or the scholarship has not been poshttps://honors.baylor.edu/prospective-students/scholarship-opportunities/scholarships-prospective-studentsted to your account, unfortunately, this means that after careful review of your application, we are not able to extend a scholarship offer at this time. 
  • Completing a FAFSA and/or CSS Profile is important for all Honors College students in order to maximize opportunities for endowed scholarship support.
  • If awarded, please be aware that Financial Aid will be processing the award. You will be notified by an email from the Student Financial Aid office once this scholarship is added to your Financial Aid Dashboard in BearWeb for the corresponding academic year, provided their office receives your FAFSA. Please note that the amount of your award is dependent on your financial aid status and the amount may change based on your FAFSA information.
