Scholarships

Campbell University awards merit and endowed scholarships to a limited number of applicants who are offered admission to CUSOM and accept that offer. 

Endowed scholarship criteria vary based on the respective scholarship agreements.  

Merit Scholarship criteria are based primarily on cumulative GPA, science GPA, MCAT scores, applicant admissions information, content of scholarship essay, and other information as may be available.  

CUSOM Merit Scholarships are by invitation only.  CUSOM utilizes a rolling awards basis for Merit Scholarships, generally aligning with the CUSOM rolling admissions process, so funds are dispersed as qualified candidates are identified.  As such, some qualified candidates may not receive awards if funding has been exhausted. 

With this in mind, prospective students who meet the criteria, and have interest in a Merit Scholarship, are encouraged to apply for admission to CUSOM early.  Although this does not guarantee an award, if an offer of admission is extended, and accepted by the applicant earlier in the admissions cycle, they may be better positioned to possibly receive an invitation for a scholarship while funds remain available.  

Decisions for awarding all Merit Scholarships are made at the sole discretion of the CUSOM Scholarship Committee.
