Rose‑Hulman Awarded Grants and Scholarships

We don’t want finances to prevent a student accepted to Rose-Hulman from attending, that’s why we offer scholarships, grants and loans.

Rose-Hulman Merit Scholarship
All admitted students are automatically considered for the Rose-Hulman Merit Scholarship, which is awarded to students based on a number of factors both academic and non-academic. Two criteria are used to determine the award:

• Academic measures. These include the quality of the high school curriculum you pursued, class rank and size (if applicable) and test scores.
• Non-academic measures. These typically center around, but are not limited to, extracurricular activities, leadership and community service. Rose-Hulman is a member of NCAA Division III; as such, no consideration is given to pre-enrollment or post-enrollment athletics participation in scholarship determination.

Rose-Hulman Need-Based Grant
Rose-Hulman need-based aid is determined by the FAFSA that is filed every year starting in October. Each year the need-based aid is reevaluated to determine the new award for the next year.

Rose-Hulman Named Scholarships
Rose-Hulman Named Scholarships are limited in number and have specific restrictions placed on them by the donor. All students who meet eligibility requirements for these awards will automatically be considered. In most cases, the Rose-Hulman Financial Aid Committee will award these scholarships based on the information provided in your admission file.

Noblitt Scholars Program
This is a four-year invitation-only program for students with a passion to make a positive impact on the world. Students in the program are required to identify an area of concern or interest to them, such as sustainability, infrastructure, or social justice. Working with a faculty mentor, they will dive deeply into their chosen area to gain a growing knowledge and understanding of the context involved. To demonstrate their progress, each year during the four-year program they will formally present their reflections on what they have learned, mastered, and discovered. Every Noblitt Scholar will also receive financial assistance, with enhanced scholarships up to full tuition.
