The College of Applied Studies annually awards more than $750,000 in both merit-based and need-based scholarships to students in the College of Applied Studies. These awards are made possible by our gracious donors, which allow us to provide over 200 students financial assistance as they pursue their degrees at Wichita State. 

Only one application is necessary to apply for nearly all scholarships available to students in the College of Applied Studies. Undergraduate and graduate students can apply for scholarships through Scholarship Universe from November 1 until March 1 each academic year, and applications received during this period are used to select recipients for the following academic year.
