Scholarship questions
Does Nexford offer scholarships?
Yes, we do! To support learners who are academically prepared for college but who lack the financial means to attend, Nexford University created the Nexford Financial Need Scholarship.
The Nexford Financial Need Scholarship was developed to benefit learners who meet a set of criteria to determine their financial need. The criteria includes, among other items, the employment level and number of financially dependent family members the applicant has. There are limited scholarships available each term. Each application is evaluated by the Scholarship Committee, after detailed information is provided by the applicant. The scholarship decision is final, with no appeal process.
There is a limited quantity of scholarship slots available — discuss with a Nexford Application Specialist or contact help@nexford.org to learn more.
You can also visit Nexford.org/scholarships to check out the terms and conditions of the other scholarships available to learners you may be interested in.
How do I apply for a scholarship?
It's easy! Apply for a scholarship at the same time as you're applying for a Nexford program. Within the application, we'll ask you several scholarship questions to see if you're eligible.
If you're successful, you'll get an email with a voucher code (it'll be in a separate email than your Offer Letter). Enter this code when you enroll.
How do I know which scholarship to apply for?
We offer scholarships for learners in different countries or at different stages in their careers. Check out the list of scholarships available.
Can I apply for more than one scholarship?
You can – but you can only apply one scholarship to your program. We want as many people as possible to have the chance of a scholarship.
How do I know I'm successful? What happens next?
If you’re successful, you’ll be sent next steps via email — so keep an eye on your inbox!
Once I have a scholarship, how do I enroll?
When you receive your scholarship, we'll send you a voucher code. Use this code when you enroll to apply your scholarship. You only have to use the code once: we'll apply it automatically each month.
You can find advice and guidance on enrolling to Nexford in our step-by-step guide.
Can I support my application via email?
Unfortunately, we can't reply to individual messages. Be sure to share any details, supporting information or your personal story in your application. That way, you can be sure we'll read it.
How do you choose who gets a scholarship?
It depends on the scholarship. Each one is unique. Check out the terms and conditions of the scholarship you're interested in.
If I'm offered a scholarship, do I have to start right away? Or can I wait a couple of months?
That depends on the scholarship. Usually you'll be able to choose from one or two start dates, and so you'll start at the time as other scholarship recipients. Check out the terms and conditions of the scholarship you're interested in.
Do I have to be based in the US?
No, you can live anywhere in the world, as we're 100% online! Nexford is open for global learners, and is the Nexford Financial Need Scholarship.
You can also visit Nexford.org/scholarships to check out the terms and conditions of the other scholarships available to learners you may be interested in.

I've started my application already. Can I go back and apply for a scholarship?
You can! If you're interested in a scholarship, just answer the questions that appear within your application. With everything in one place, there's nothing else you need to do!
What if I get behind on my work? Will the scholarship be taken away?
Because Nexford scholarships are designed for people reaching for the top, we expect you to maintain a 2.5 GPA in the BBA and a 3.0 in the MBA. Check out your scholarship terms and conditions for any other merit-based measures. Each one is unique.
