HUSOE Scholarships and External Funding Opportunities
Financial support is available for HUSOE students through scholarships and graduate assistantships. All HUSOE scholarships are highly competitive whether merit-based or need-based. For full consideration, current students must submit the online scholarship application, along with electronic copies of unofficial transcripts for all schools attended, and two recommendation forms to be submitted by recommenders. Students must provide the recommenders with the recommendation link with enough time for recommenders to submit by February 1st. Recommenders must submit recommendations here, by February 1, 2025 (Late recommendations will not be accepted). Prospective students should contact the coordinator for their degree program for further guidance on how to apply.
All applicants must also complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
The deadline to submit the 2025-2026 HUSOE Scholarship Application is February 1, 2025. Deadlines for external funding vary. Students are strongly encouraged to apply to all HUSOE scholarships and external funding opportunities for which they are eligible.
If you have any questions or issues with submitting information, please contact Dr. Kyndra Middleton, Director of Graduate Studies, HUSOE: kyndra.middleton@howard.edu.
