Valdosta State University is proud to offer scholarships to currently enrolled students, incoming freshmen and transfer students.  The VSU Foundation and University Scholarships are established by private donors and awarded each year to students with excellent academic achievement and/or those students with financial need.  Scholarships are financial awards given to students who represent the high standards of Valdosta State University.

Merit Based Scholarships are awarded based on academic achievement, potential, leadership skills, extracurricular activities, community service and individual scholarship criteria regardless of financial need.

Need Based Scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate financial need.  For consideration of need-based scholarships, students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon after January 1, as they can and list VSU as an institution of intent.  The FAFSA is available through our home page.  VSU’s Title IV School Code is 001599. Additional requirements for need based scholarships include leadership skills, community involvement and individual scholarship criteria will also be considered. 

Regardless of your family’s income or your potential eligibility for a scholarship, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and all other financial aid documents required by the VSU Office of Financial Aid.  Need based scholarships require the FAFSA.
