Other Scholarships, Fellowships & Awards
Opportunities for competitive and need-based awards are plentiful at Rhodes.
The application process is simple:
- Complete and submit an application for admission to Rhodes by January 15.
- To be eligible for any need-based financial awards, submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and CSS PROFILE between February 1 and March 1 and have the results sent to Rhodes.
- We recommend that you schedule a campus visit and interview. It’s not required, but it helps us get to know you and gives us further information on which to base our admission and awards decisions.
