Auburn University Achievement Scholarship

Name: Auburn University Achievement Scholarship

Award Amount: Varies (typically up to $3,000 per year)

Information And Eligibility:
The Achievement Scholarship is a merit-based award offered by Auburn University at Montgomery (AUM) to recognize incoming undergraduate students who demonstrate strong academic performance and the potential for continued success at the collegiate level. This scholarship is designed to reward students who have shown consistent dedication to their studies and who plan to pursue their undergraduate education at AUM as full-time students.

The Achievement Scholarship helps reduce the cost of attendance by providing financial assistance that may be applied toward tuition and other educational expenses. Award amounts vary depending on academic credentials, institutional funding availability, and the strength of the applicant pool for each academic year. While the scholarship is competitive, it is intended to be accessible to a broad range of academically qualified students rather than only top-ranked applicants.

Eligibility for the Achievement Scholarship is primarily based on high school academic performance. Students must be admitted to AUM as first-time, degree-seeking undergraduates and meet the minimum GPA requirement established by the university. The scholarship is renewable for eligible students who continue to meet enrollment and academic standards, allowing recipients to benefit from multiple years of financial support while completing their degree.

Recipients of the Achievement Scholarship are expected to enroll full-time, defined as a minimum of 12 credit hours per semester. Maintaining good academic standing is required for renewal, which generally includes meeting minimum GPA standards set by the university and making satisfactory progress toward degree completion. Failure to meet these requirements may result in reduction or loss of the scholarship in subsequent terms.

The Achievement Scholarship is often combined with other forms of financial aid, such as federal grants, state aid, or additional institutional scholarships, to create a more comprehensive financial aid package. Students are encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to maximize eligibility for need-based aid alongside this merit-based award.

By recognizing academic achievement at the point of admission, AUM uses the Achievement Scholarship to attract motivated students who are prepared to engage fully in university life. Scholarship recipients benefit not only from financial assistance but also from being part of an academic community that values excellence, persistence, and long-term educational success.

Students interested in the Achievement Scholarship should apply early, ensure that all admissions materials are submitted on time, and regularly monitor the AUM scholarship portal for updates, award notifications, and renewal criteria.
