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

Common questions
How many Montana scholarships are there?
Award Scholar currently lists 1 verified scholarships for Montana students, with amounts and deadlines checked against each sponsor's official page. The median award is around $7,500, and the largest reaches $7,500.
What Montana financial aid exists beyond scholarships?
Montana runs its own aid programs, including Montana University System aid, administered by Montana University System. File the FAFSA (As soon as possible after the FAFSA opens for priority consideration.) to unlock them, then stack private scholarships on top. See the full Montana financial aid guide for deadlines and eligibility.
Can Montana students also win national scholarships?
Yes. Statewide awards restrict the applicant pool to Montana 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 October 10, 2026. Deadlines are spread across the whole year, so a miss is never fatal — new windows open every month.
