Will I be eligible for Kent State scholarships if I will have a faculty/staff/dependent Tuition Waiver Benefit?
Many Kent State scholarships can be applied only to tuition instructional and general fees. Therefore, if the student will use a Tuition Waiver Benefit, these types of scholarships will be cancelled. Affected scholarships include, but are not limited to, the following incoming first-year student and incoming transfer student scholarships awarded by Admissions, Student Financial Aid and the Honors College:
- Academic Achievement Award
- Founders Scholarship
- Honors Distinction Award
- Oscar Richie Memorial Scholarship
- President Achievement Award
- Transfer2Kent Scholarship
- Transfer in a Flash Scholarship
If cancelled due to a Tuition Waiver Benefit, these awards will NOT be replaced with funding to be used towards living expenses, books, or other educational-related expenses.
