Scholarships and Grants: Apply Today!


What’s better than free money for college? It’s no secret that tuition is one of the largest investments a person will make in their lifetime. It’s also no secret that student loans can send students down a path leading straight to heavy debt. The University of Mississippi has a variety of scholarships and grants available for your child. Although the application process is not fun, it will be worth the effort when you’re awarded free college funds!

We're sure it;' the goal at Ole Miss to provide students with a high-quality education at an affordable cost. Upon our research, we found the scholarships listed below as Academic Excellence scholarships available for incoming freshmen and community college transfer students that plan to attend The University of Mississippi beginning Fall 2019.

GPA’s are checked after each term for continued eligibility. The deadline to apply is Sept. 15, 2019. Students may only qualify for one State Grant per year.

To qualify for the Mississippi Tuition Assistance Grant (MTAG), you must have a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher and ACT of 15 or higher. The max award for freshmen and sophomores is $250/semester. If you are rewarded the MTAG, you are not eligible for a full Pell Grant.

  2. Sign up for Parent Guest Access on myOleMiss (your students portal).

  3. Have your student give the university permission to discuss their financial aid information with you on myOleMiss.

  4. Encourage your student to understand how adjusting class schedules could impact their award eligibility.
