Oxford Undergraduate Student Scholarships

Incoming Oxford students are automatically considered for Miami University merit scholarships. There is no separate scholarship application. Scholarships are not guaranteed and are based on academic credentials provided with their admission application.

Incoming and continuing students are considered each year for donor and departmental scholarships. The Office of Student Financial Assistance automatically makes award determinations based on eligibility criteria.

Some donor and departmental scholarships are based on financial need. To be considered for need-based aid, students are encouraged to submit their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by Miami’s priority deadline.
