Scholarships and Grants

Scholarships and grants are monetary gifts that do not have to be repaid. Some scholarships and grants defray the cost of tuition and direct student expenses, and others are used for special purposes and programs. Many scholarships and grants are reserved for students who meet specific criteria without the need for additional application procedures. (See Scholarships, Awards, and Prizes for details about some of these institutional scholarships and grants.)

In addition to institutional scholarship and grant funds, Berea College participates in the following federal and state programs: Federal Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, Kentucky College Access Grants, Kentucky Tuition Grants, and Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarships (KEES).
