Scholarships for United Methodist Students
We’re providing scholarships for United Methodist students, and select others, attending United Methodist-related schools.
Affordability is an increasingly present challenge for many seeking a quality higher education. The United Methodist Higher Education Foundation is committed to making it financially possible for United Methodist students to attend United Methodist-related colleges, universities, and seminaries.
Every year, we award more than $2 million in scholarships to hundreds of students. In turn, we support the 100+ United Methodist-related schools at which they hope to enroll.
UMHEF Scholarship Programs
UMHEF offers two main scholarship programs. Applications are currently closed, but please check back for more information.
In addition to these two main programs, UMHEF offers a handful of other scholarship awards designated for students who meet special criteria, including for:
- students attending UM-related Historically Black Colleges and Universities,
- students who plan to serve as a chaplain in the U.S. military,
- students who are deaf or hearing impaired and planning to serve in ministry,
- and more!
Join us in supporting United Methodist students and the UM schools they hope to attend!
