Help Finding Scholarships

There are a variety of legitimate services that provide help finding and accessing scholarship opportunities. Several of these servicers are listed in the chart below.

If you will receive a scholarship(s) from any source outside UAlbany, you need to send a copy of the official notification letter for that scholarship to the financial aid office. Please provide your name and Albany ID on the notification.

Any financial assistance from outside sources will be added to your financial aid package. In the event that the outside assistance affects your eligibility for previously awarded financial aid, your award will be adjusted and you will be sent a revised financial aid award notice.

The search websites listed are not related to the University in any way and the University at Albany makes no claims about them or recommendations for them or their sponsors.
