Non-Resident Freshman Scholarships

National Merit, National Achievement, and National Hispanic Scholars
Non-resident National Merit Finalists, National Achievement Finalists, and National Hispanic Scholars automatically receive a four-year, renewable Academic Presidential Scholarship. Presidential Scholars receive full tuition for four years, currently valued at $65,144 ($16,286 per year); a $1,500 technology allowance in the first year; and the Auburn Academic Guarantee. The Auburn Academic Guarantee includes automatic admission to the Honors College and an enrichment experience valued at $4,000 during the third year. A Presidential Scholarship replaces an Academic Heritage or Charter Scholarship if previously awarded.

National Scholars may also be eligible for a university stipend from $1,000 to $2,000, depending on financial need as determined through completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) . National Merit Finalists should contact National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) to name Auburn University as their first-choice institution by the requested deadline. National Achievement Finalists and National Hispanic Scholars should mail or fax a copy of their notification letter to the Office of University Scholarships upon receipt.


Elite Scholarships
The University Scholarship Committee invites a select group of incoming freshmen, usually those with a minimum 34 ACT or 1500 SAT score and a 3.5 high school GPA as of the December 1 Freshman Scholarship priority deadline, to apply for up to six of Auburn’s most prestigious scholarships. Following application review by the Committee, 12 to 14 finalists are invited to campus in February to interview. Elite Scholars receive an additional $10,000-$32,000 over four years ($2,500-$8,000 per year).

Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarships

Incoming freshmen, with all required admission credentials postmarked by the December 1 Freshman Scholarship priority deadline, receive automatic consideration. Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarships are awarded among students with a minimum 26 ACT or 1170 SAT score and a 3.0 high school GPA who have not already been recognized by the Office of University Scholarships with a scholarship of equal or greater value. Additional consideration is given to first generation college students. Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarships are awarded in February/March at $6,000 over four years ($1,500 per year).
