Northwest invites applications for the Northwest International Achievement Scholarship (NIAS) for Undergraduates in the USA for the 2023/24 academic year.
Studying abroad with no friends and family can be daunting but thanks to the amazing cultural exposure and diversity at Northwest, adjusting is made very easy. Furthermore, courses are designed to strengthen fundamentals and spur students to push through their limits and achieve great feats.
Worth of Award
- This award will represent the value of the difference in price between in-state and out-of-state tuition.
- It is equivalent to approximately $7,078 during your first year based on 28 credit hours (the scholarship total will vary based on credit hours taken).
Eligibility
- The scholarship is renewable the second year if a student completes 24 unique credit hours (superseded credit hours do not count twice) with a 3.0 GPA. If a student does not maintain continuous enrollment they will lose their waiver.
- For international NEW transfer students to be eligible for the NIAS, you must transfer to Northwest with a 3.00 GPA in at least 24 hours of transferable credit and meet the standard NIAS English proficiency levels. Transfer students with fewer than 24 transferable hours will be eligible based on freshman criteria alone.
For NEW freshmen (first-year students) to be eligible for the NIAS, you must have graduated from a non-English speaking school and be at one of the following levels of English proficiency:
- 65 on Internet-based TOEFL or
- 6.0 on Academic IELTS or
- 50 on Pearson Test of English
How to Apply
- These are automatic scholarships that will be applied to the student’s account.
- There is no application required to be considered for these scholarships.
Deadline: The deadline for the Northwest International Achievement Scholarship is open.
