ALUMNI HERITAGE SCHOLARSHIP
The Alumni Heritage Scholarship assists with the cost of nonresident tuition at S&T for the children or grandchildren of alumni residing outside of Missouri. This generous scholarship, which is funded by the university, provides a $1,000 annual scholarship to qualified applicants for a total of four years or eight semesters, as long as annual renewal criteria are met and the student is a full-time student paying nonresident tuition. The scholarship is available in addition to any other university scholarships, departmental scholarships or external awards a student may receive. No additional application is needed as long as the student has applied for admission, indicated that they are a child or grandchild of an alumnus/na and have a 24 or above ACT and 3.0 or above cumulative GPA. Transfer students who will have completed 24 hours of college credit prior to enrolling at S&T will also be considered.
