Please note that the athletic scholarship takes into consideration academic, athletic, leadership, and other scholarship awards and, therefore, cannot be stacked with other scholarships. For more information specific to your scholarship, please contact the head coach of the sport for which you have been awarded.
Christian Leadership Scholarships
Scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated Christian Leadership in the following areas: Chorale, Drama, Ministry Service, Student Publications, Student Government, Chapel Leadership, Instrumental, and Piano/Keyboard.
To apply for the scholarship, students must fill out the additional question on the essay portion of the Application for Admission pertaining to the area of Christian Leadership for which they would like to apply, citing what they have accomplished in that area. Awards from $500-$2,500 may be granted dependent upon demonstrated Christian leadership and essay. These scholarships are renewable each year based on the student’s continued positive leadership in that area.
Faculty Senate Scholarship
Scholarships will be awarded to juniors and seniors at Providence who embody and exemplify the qualities the faculty desires in a Providence student. The award will be based upon college academic performance at Providence as well as leadership and service in the community. An applicant’s marked academic improvement while at Providence will also be taken into consideration. To apply, sophomore and junior students must have completed one full semester at Providence and submit a Faculty Senate Scholarship application, including completing the essay questions. These applications will be reviewed by the Faculty Senate. The senate members may also nominate any student they deem appropriate who has not applied to be considered for the scholarship. They will determine the number and size of the awards offered in each division. After the initial awarding, junior students may renew the scholarship for an additional year, contingent upon faculty approval, which will take into consideration the maintenance of a 3.0 cumulative GPA and demonstrated leadership and service.
Christian School Scholarship
In an effort to recognize the importance of continued higher education from a Christian perspective, Providence will award a scholarship up to $5,000 (approximately 20% the cost of tuition) to students who have attended a Christian school. This scholarship is renewable each year. Schools with eitherCSIorACSIaffiliation will be granted the scholarship. Other Christian schools will be considered on a case-by-case basis by contacting your admissions counselor.

Homeschool Scholarship
Each year at Providence, approximately 25-35% of our student body come from homeschooled backgrounds.
