Delaware Scholarships

Living or studying in Delaware qualifies you for scholarships that most students never see: statewide awards restricted to DE residents, where the applicant pool is a fraction of any national contest. These verified awards sit on top of the national scholarships and Delaware's own state aid programs, so treat them as one layer of a larger funding plan.

Common questions

How many Delaware scholarships are there?

Award Scholar currently lists 1 verified scholarships for Delaware students, with amounts and deadlines checked against each sponsor's official page.

What Delaware financial aid exists beyond scholarships?

Delaware runs its own aid programs, including Delaware SEED Scholarship and Delaware Scholarship Incentive Program, administered by Delaware Higher Education Office. File the FAFSA (May 30, 2026.) to unlock them, then stack private scholarships on top. See the full Delaware financial aid guide for deadlines and eligibility.

Can Delaware students also win national scholarships?

Yes. Statewide awards restrict the applicant pool to Delaware residents, which improves your odds, but they are one layer. Most winning students combine state-restricted awards, national scholarships that match their profile, and state aid.

When is the next deadline?

The next verified deadline in this group is February 5, 2027. Deadlines are spread across the whole year, so a miss is never fatal — new windows open every month.
