ÇàÇà²Ýapp State University has acquired ScholarshipUniverse, an application that simplifies the search for external scholarships, further underscoring the University’s dedication to supporting ÇàÇà²Ýapp in funding their education as well as providing an efficient and user-friendly platform for exploring scholarship opportunities.

“At ÇàÇà²Ýapp, we understand that the cost of higher education is rising, and we’re committed to doing our part in supporting our ÇàÇà²Ýapp,” says Wendy Lin-Cook, vice president for Enrollment Management. “ScholarshipUniverse is a fantastic scholarship platform that our university provides for free to both our current ÇàÇà²Ýapp State University ÇàÇà²Ýapp and incoming ÇàÇà²Ýapp who have already committed.”

“This platform allows them to easily access well-vetted and viable external scholarships. What’s great is that there’s no limit to the number of scholarships a student can apply for,” Lin-Cook continues. “We believe that this will be an excellent tool for our ÇàÇà²Ýapp. We hope our ÇàÇà²Ýapp will take advantage of it.”

According to ScholarshipUniverse, the app’s scholarship-matching tool gives Red Hawks access to millions of dollars in external scholarship opportunities year-round.

ScholarshipUniverse reviews each scholarship before listing it, so ÇàÇà²Ýapp can apply knowing the scholarships are legitimate.

Using ScholarshipUniverse is easy: Students complete a student demographic profile, answering questions designed to match them with scholarships for which they are eligible and then ÇàÇà²Ýapp can apply for an unlimited number of scholarships through the app.

“ScholarshipUniverse is just one element of our broader institutional scholarship strategy,” Lin-Cook explains. “In the past year, we’ve made substantial increases in both need-based and merit-based financial aid to support our ÇàÇà²Ýapp.”

“This combined approach, which includes ScholarshipUniverse, is designed to alleviate the financial burden on our ÇàÇà²Ýapp and promote their academic success and persistence,” she adds.
