NC State Forestry and Environmental Resources Academic Scholarship
Direct application
About this scholarship
Current or admitted full-time NC State undergraduates in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Resources (FER) may apply for departmental Academic Scholarships based on merit or financial need. Eligible majors include Environmental Sciences, Environmental Technology and Management, Forest Management, Natural Resources, and Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Biology. For double majors, the first major must be in FER.
Incoming freshmen need a 3.75 GPA and an SAT of 1250 or ACT of 25. Current undergraduates and transfer students need a 3.5 GPA. Award amounts vary. Academic scholarships may be renewed for the minimum additional semesters needed to finish the current major (up to three additional years) if the recipient stays in the major and keeps a 3.5+ GPA.
These departmental scholarships operate independently from university-wide merit aid, college-wide programs, and federal, state, and private aid.
