About this scholarship

Incoming George Fox University first-year and transfer students may earn additional scholarship funding through the Scholarship Summit program on top of their merit award.

Participants who complete both program trails may earn $1,000 to $3,000 per year in stack-on funding, depending on application timing. Early Action applicants qualify for up to $3,000 and Priority Decision applicants for up to $2,000. University-funded stack-on awards are capped at $5,000 above the merit scholarship.

Admitted students receive email instructions to complete Trail 1 and department interviews for Trail 2. The program is available only to incoming freshmen and transfer students.
