Many Pace University students receive scholarships and grants from organizations outside of Pace. Organizations, such as private corporations, non-profit organizations, and local community organizations, offer scholarship opportunities to college students who meet specific criteria. The Financial Aid Office highly recommends that students take advantage of these opportunities.
If you have been awarded a third-party/external scholarship you must notify the Student Accounts Office by securely submitting documentation through their Outside Scholarship Letter Document Submission Form. For more information regarding the outside scholarship process at Pace University please visit the Student Accounts Office Outside Scholarship webpage.
