More Scholarships Than Ever!
Students who apply to Monmouth and attend full-time are considered automatically for scholarships and grants up to $14,000 annually that are awarded on the basis of your cumulative college grade point average.* Students who file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) are evaluated for federal, state, and Monmouth University need-based aid.
Students are also evaluated for:
