This newsletter serves as a resource for scholarships that the DHS Counseling Department has directly heard about; this is not an exhaustive list by any means. To look for more scholarships, you can find resources at the bottom of this newsletter.

Note: The scholarship deadline may occur before you receive a decision regarding admission. You still want to fill out the application, even if you are not sure if you will gain acceptance. It is always good idea to apply for scholarships internally at every school you apply to.
