Miami Hamilton Promise
The Miami Hamilton Promise Scholarship covers the cost of tuition and fees after financial aid for eligible students from Hamilton, Ohio.
Regionals (Hamilton and Middletown) Scholarships
Scholarships are a type of Gift Aid that are typically based on merit, such as academic excellence, talent, affiliation with various groups, career aspirations, or a combination of merit and financial need. To receive scholarships awarded by Miami University, you must enroll full time.
To be considered for need-based scholarships as a Hamilton or Middletown student, you must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). We recommend you apply by Miami’s priority deadline to maximize your chances of receiving aid. Please note that University merit scholarships do not require FAFSA completion.
As part of Miami’s scholarship processing, all or a portion of your institutional scholarships may be replaced at a later date with a donor scholarship(s). This may require the completion of a Scholarship Thank You Letter to the donor.
Automatic Consideration Scholarships
Merit Scholarships
During the application process, students are automatically considered for University merit scholarships. Award determinations are based on academic credentials provided at the time of their admission application.
Donor Scholarships
Each year, students are considered for donor and departmental scholarships. Award determinations are based on the scholarship eligibility criteria.

NSF S-STEM Scholars
Miami offers scholarships in select STEM disciplines to students pursuing associate, bachelor’s, or graduate degrees.
Transfer Students
New transfer students admitted to Miami Regionals in the fall or spring semesters will be considered for transfer scholarship opportunities.
Scholarship Adjustments
Scholarships covering tuition and fees may be reduced if you receive additional aid that covers the same charges or if your total funding exceeds your cost of attendance. This includes resources such as the Miami University Staff/Family Fee Waiver, Ohio College Opportunity Grant (OCOG), War Orphans Scholarship, Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, Ohio National Guard benefits, ROTC awards, Miami Access Fellows, and others. In these cases, your scholarship may be adjusted to ensure compliance with federal, state, and institutional funding guidelines.
Your Financial Aid Offer
After applying for financial aid, you will receive an email with a link to your financial aid offer. Your financial aid offer may be a combination of grants, scholarships, and other funding options such as loans and federal work-study funds.
