UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS 2027

Leave a comment

Application Deadline:  January 15, 2027

LOCATION: USA

Each year, the USF Office of Admissions awards merit-based scholarships to international students. USF will automatically consider you for competitive, merit-based scholarships if you submit and complete the freshman application for Summer or Fall 2027 by January 15, 2027.

ELIGIBILITY:

You will be considered for merit scholarships based on the same academic records used to establish your admission and residency status.

You are not required to submit any additional applications. All accepted students are automatically considered for our admissions merit scholarships.

The number of merit-based scholarships is limited, so we encourage you to complete your application by the January 15 deadline.

Scholarship Options – International Students:

Out-of-State Waivers: These merit-based tuition reduction waivers are awarded to a limited number of admitted first-year students who are not Florida residents.

Out-of-state reduction awards are disbursed as waivers that decrease the total cost of attendance, but they only apply toward out-of-state tuition. These awards cannot be used toward other costs of attendance expenses (housing, meals, books).

They will pay up to the amount of the award, but if the student is enrolled in fewer course credits, the waiver may pay less than the amount awarded.

If the student’s residency status is updated to in-state for tuition purposes after enrollment, the merit-based tuition waiver will no longer apply, the award will be canceled, and it will not be replaced by a Florida resident award.

Please note: The out-of-state, merit-based tuition reduction waivers cannot be combined with another tuition-waiver scholarship (like the Green and Gold Talent Award) since both scholarships waive the same portion of non-resident tuition.

Awarding Notification:

If you are awarded a scholarship, you will be notified via postal mail.

You can monitor your award package via the Student Self-Service portal after we release initial admissions decisions.

BENEFIT:

Green and Gold Presidential Waiver Award: ~$44,000 (up to $11,000 per year)

Green and Gold Directors Waiver Award: ~$36,000 (up to $9,000 per year)

Green and Gold Scholars Waiver Award: ~$20,000 (up to $5,000 per year)
