Scholarships for College of Business students
Your future is worth investing in and we want to help make your business education more accessible. Each year, College of Business Administration students receive scholarship support from alumni, faculty, friends and industry partners who believe in their potential.
Scholarships support more than academics alone. Some recognize leadership, involvement or career goals, while others help support internships, study abroad experiences or students navigating financial need. Some awards are renewable, and a few even cover full tuition.

How Scholarship Universe works
Whether you’re already a CMU student or still exploring your options, Scholarship Universe helps you discover opportunities that match your experience and goals.
Scholarship Universe is CMU’s scholarship matching system. Instead of searching through dozens of separate applications, you complete one profile and get matched with scholarships you may qualify for.
Current students start here!
Ready to get started? Follow these steps to see what you qualify for and apply.
- Log in with your CMU Global ID
- Complete your scholarship profile
- Answer every question thoroughly
- Review your matches and apply
The more complete your profile is, the more opportunities you may unlock. Leadership, work experience, involvement, family background and financial need can all help match you to additional scholarship opportunities.
Many scholarships are need-based, so completing your FAFSA is an important step in maximizing your opportunities.
Not a CMU student yet?
You can still explore scholarship opportunities before applying to CMU.
Through Scholarship Universe, prospective students can:
- Browse available CMU scholarships
- Learn about College of Business awards
- Explore external scholarship opportunities
- Start planning ahead financially
Once you apply to CMU and receive your Global ID, you’ll be able to create a profile and apply for scholarships you qualify for.
Additional scholarship opportunities
Some opportunities are managed outside of Scholarship Universe and may require separate applications.
Veazey Endowment for transformational experiences
Supports experiences such as study abroad, internships and other high-impact learning opportunities that help students grow personally and professionally.
Outstanding Senior Business Student and Student of the Year awards
These awards recognize graduating seniors who demonstrate leadership, professionalism, academic achievement and meaningful involvement during their time at CMU.
Outstanding Senior Business Student awards honor students who have distinguished themselves through academics, internships, student organizations and service.
The Student of the Year award is the College of Business Administration’s highest student honor, recognizing exceptional leadership, teamwork and commitment to the CMU community.
Sometimes a scholarship is what allows a student to study abroad, accept an internship or focus more fully on their education.
