Aid for undergraduates

The amount of financial aid awarded each year makes a Belmont education reasonable and affordable. We distribute comprehensive aid packages made up of a combination of need-based aid and merit-based aid. To be eligible to receive any form of need-based aid from Belmont University, you should complete and return the FAFSA by March 1 of the year in which you plan to enroll.

Merit scholarships
Merit scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic excellence and achievement. Scholarships are gifts that do not need to be repaid. In order to be considered for academic merit scholarships, you must complete the application for admission to the university on or before December 1.
