This scholarship brief outlines the various merit-based scholarship opportunities available at the University of Rochester for prospective undergraduate students. The University of Rochester distinguishes between merit-based aid, awarded as scholarships for outstanding academic achievement and potential, and need-based aid, which is determined by a family's financial situation. While the majority of the university's financial aid budget is allocated to need-based aid, a limited number of merit scholarships are available to exceptional first-year and transfer students. ## Overview The University of Rochester offers a range of merit-based scholarships to recognize academic excellence and potential in incoming first-year and transfer students. These scholarships are automatically considered for all admitted undergraduate applicants to Arts, Sciences, Engineering, and Business programs. They are renewable annually, provided the student maintains satisfactory academic performance and full-time status. The university utilizes an Institutional Methodology to calculate the expected family contribution, meaning it may differ from other sources. Merit aid is distributed regardless of a family’s demonstrated financial need. Students, including international applicants, are eligible for only one merit scholarship. ## Benefits Merit scholarships primarily come in the form of monetary awards applied to tuition. Approximately half of admitted students received a merit scholarship in a recent academic year, with the average award being around $14,000. Some highly selective scholarships, like the Alan and Jane Handler Scholarship, provide comprehensive financial support covering tuition, fees, room, board, and books for the duration of the regular academic program, along with individual and group opportunities. It is important to note that University of Rochester tuition benefits and scholarship funds cannot be applied to non-tuition related expenses, such as housing and dining services. If a student qualifies for University of Rochester tuition benefits due to a parent's employment, these benefits must be applied to the bill before merit scholarships. The combination of tuition benefits and scholarship funds can approach or match, but not exceed, the cost of tuition. Specific scholarships offer varied benefits: * **Alan and Jane Handler Scholarship:** Complete financial support (tuition, fees, room, board, and books) and individual and group opportunities. * **Steven J. Harrison Scholarship:** A 1/3 tuition scholarship for students admitted to the GRADE (Guaranteed Rochester Accelerated Degree in Education) Program. * **Say Yes to Education Program:** Full tuition funding through a combination of federal, state, and university grants for Say Yes students admitted to URochester from Syracuse and Buffalo City School Districts, with family incomes less than or equal to $100,000. * **Rochester Promise:** A source of funding specifically for Rochester City School District graduates. ## Eligibility Eligibility for merit scholarships is primarily based on outstanding academic achievement and potential demonstrated by applicants. All admitted undergraduate applicants to Arts, Sciences, Engineering, and Business are considered for merit scholarships. Specific scholarships have additional eligibility criteria: * **Alan and Jane Handler Scholarship:** Selected students who do not otherwise have the financial means to attain a URochester education, based on academic excellence, outstanding potential to be future leaders, and demonstrated mastery of complex challenges. * **International Baccalaureate (IB) Scholarship:** Students who have excelled in the IB Diploma Programme. Students who successfully complete the IB diploma at Wilson Magnet High School are eligible for consideration for a full tuition IB Scholarship. * **Prince Street Scholarship:** High academic achievers with outstanding creative capacity in one or more artistic fields. * **Simon Scholars Scholarship:** Exceptionally strong academic students who have demonstrated an interest in an undergraduate business degree rooted in economics and analytics, displayed positive leadership traits, and have a deep commitment to racial and global diversity. * **Steven J.

Wilson Leader of Change Scholarship:** For students who demonstrate leadership by promoting bridge-building dialogues across racial, ethnic, religious, cultural, and linguistic lines in diverse environments, while also exhibiting academic excellence and extracurricular achievement. * **Rochester Promise:** First-year and transfer applicants who reside in the city of Rochester (or have resided there during high school); have graduated from and spent their last two years at a Rochester City School District public or publicly chartered high school within city boundaries; and enroll in a full-time undergraduate program. * **Say Yes to Education:** Say Yes students admitted to URochester, including qualified graduates of the Syracuse and Buffalo City School Districts, whose family income is less than or equal to $100,000. * **Rochester Rotary Oratorical Scholarship:** Recognizes participants in the Rochester Rotary Oratorical Contest on Ethics who demonstrate confidence, eloquence, and poise. ## Required Documents The source does not explicitly list required documents for general merit scholarships, as automatic consideration is given to all admitted undergraduate applicants. However, for specific scholarships, additional materials may be needed: * **LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship:** Completion of the LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship Application is required for consideration. For need-based aid, which may be part of an overall financial aid offer, applicants must reapply each year as family financial situations can change. The university's Institutional Methodology considers factors such as assets, family size, and number in college, in addition to family income. ## How to Apply All admitted undergraduate applicants to Arts, Sciences, Engineering, and Business are automatically considered for most merit scholarships during the admission process. There is no separate application required for these scholarships. However, some specific scholarships have additional application steps: * **LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship:** Requires completion of the LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship Application. * Students interested in the GRADE (Guaranteed Rochester Accelerated Degree in Education) Program would apply for that program for consideration for the Steven J. Harrison Scholarship. Students needing financial aid beyond merit scholarships should be aware that they must reapply for need-based aid each year. ## Key Dates The source states that students who complete all application materials on time and are admitted to the University will receive a financial aid award letter shortly after their admission notification. Late applicants may not receive their award letter until after the May 1 deposit deadline, so keeping track of deadlines is crucial. Specific deadlines for scholarship applications are not provided in the source. ## Selection Merit scholarships are awarded to exceptional first-year and transfer students who demonstrate outstanding academic achievement and potential. Selection for most scholarships is automatic upon admission to the university. However, some specialized scholarships have specific selection criteria: * **Alan and Jane Handler Scholarship:** Scholars are selected on the basis of academic excellence, outstanding potential to be future leaders, and demonstrated mastery of complex challenges. * **Dean’s Scholarship:** Winners have demonstrated both academic achievement and the potential to make unique contributions to URochester student life. * **Genesee Scholarship:** Aims to answer financial challenges and recognizes scholars who will shape residential and academic communities and inspire others. * **International Baccalaureate (IB) Scholarship:** Winners have excelled in rigorous college preparatory programs like the IB Diploma Programme. * **Meliora Scholarships:** Winners have demonstrated strong academic achievement and the promise to enrich the URochester community through leadership, initiative, and contributions to student life. * **Rush Rhees Scholarship:** Winners are expected to bring vision and broad interests to the University community. * **Prince Street Scholarship:** Recognizes high academic achievers with outstanding creative capacity in one or more artistic fields. * **Simon Scholars Scholarship:** Awarded to exceptionally strong academic students who have demonstrated an interest in an undergraduate business degree rooted in economics and analytics, displayed positive leadership traits, and have a deep commitment to racial and global diversity. * **Steven J.

Highlight any unique contributions, leadership experiences, and engagements that align with the specific values and missions of the various scholarships highlighted, such as those promoting diversity, social change, or particular academic interests. For scholarships requiring specific applications, such as the LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship, ensure these are completed accurately and submitted on time. While the source does not detail specific processes for international applicants regarding financial aid forms, it is prudent to check the official financial aid pages for any international-specific requirements for need-based aid. Early application is advisable to ensure financial aid award letters are received promptly. Given that the university calculates an Institutional Methodology (IM) for Expected Family Contribution (EFC), which may differ from other calculations, international applicants should review this process. It is also important to remember that most private universities like URochester do not typically meet 100% of demonstrated need for international students. Focus on developing a strong application that stands out for its academic rigor and potential. ## Source https://enrollment.rochester.edu/financial-aid/scholarships/
