    • The scholarship provider’s privacy policy allows for the misuse of student data
    • The scholarship requires paid membership in an organization (with certain exceptions for reputable trade organizations and others)
    • Student are required to sign up for a site or service to apply*
    • The scholarship seems primarily used for lead generation** or idea harvesting purposes***

    ** Lead generation scholarships will require students to sign up for an app or website and require minimal (if any) application requirements.
    ***Idea harvesting scholarships will require students to submit blog posts or other materials that companies may use for marketing purposes.

    Some of the scholarships are for under-represented groups in the field. As we know, architecture applies to more than just designing buildings, so those of you who love landscape design are in luck as well!

    How to win scholarships for architecture students

    If you’re applying for architecture scholarships, you may be required to submit an essay as part of your application. This is your chance to demonstrate who you are and why you want to study architecture. One of the best ways to do this is by telling a story. Construct a narrative arc by writing about how your past helped shape who you are today, and how your current goals connect to the future. Throughout your essay, architecture should be the common thread that links the past, present, and future. 

    If you need more specific tips on writing your essay, you’re in luck! We have a multitude of resources aimed at guiding you through the writing process. Check out the following guides to get started:

    Financial aid tips for architecture students

    Whether you are pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in architecture, you’ll also want to apply for need-based financial aid. This need-based financial aid can include everything from grants (like Pell Grants) to federal student loans and work study. To apply for need-based financial aid, submit the FAFSA and for some schools, the CSS Profile.

    Make sure that you apply for financial aid by the appropriate CSS Profile and FAFSA deadlines. If you apply for financial aid and are accepted to the college, you will receive a financial aid award letter which outlines the various types of aid available to you.

    College-Specific Scholarships

    Your college or university may also have specific scholarships available for students studying in the architecture school. We always remind students to research scholarships at the colleges and universities they plan to apply to. Oftentimes, they offer unique scholarship opportunities just for those planning/enrolling!
