Scholarships

The Pensacola State College Scholarship Program recognizes both academic performance and financial need when awarding scholarships. Many criteria are used to select scholarship recipients. Among these criteria are grade point average, leadership qualities, contributions to school or community, visual and performing arts achievement, athletic ability, and other academic activities. This information is provided by new students during the application process and updated by returning students who apply on their annual application. (See the Scholarship Application Form section.) Additionally, the Florida Legislature requires all students receiving a Pensacola State College academic scholarship to also have their financial need assessed by a nationally recognized needs analysis. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the approved needs determination process in Florida. The FAFSA is available online at www.fafsa.gov. The student must input Pensacola State College’s school code 001513 as one of their college choices on the FAFSA. (See the Financial Aid section of the catalog.) 

For detailed information regarding eligibility, selection criteria, and application procedures, refer to the link on the College website.
