BOONE, N.C. — The 2025-26 Appalachian Scholarship Application Portal (ASAP) opens this Sunday, December 1, 2024, and closes Friday, February 7, 2025. Through ASAP, students may submit one application to be automatically matched with the university and department scholarships they're eligible to receive. The portal can be accessed at asap.appstate.edu.
Students who have declared a major have an increased chance of matching with scholarships that are designated for students in that major. Information about department scholarships is provided on each academic department's website.
Additionally, the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) offers 6 scholarships to eligible students majoring in degree programs in CAS:
Drs. Joanne Smith and Don R. Brannon Scholarship for Natural Sciences
GlaxoSmithKline Women in Science Scholars Endowment
Jonathan K. Perryman Endowed Memorial Scholarship for the Sciences
Richard A. Thomas Memorial Scholarship for Arts and Sciences
Sally A. Callegari Memorial Scholarship for Gender Diversity in Animal Studies
The Peggy Harmon Shore Pre-Health Care Professional Endowed Scholarship
Last year, CAS awarded over $300,000 in scholarship funds to over 200 students. For more information about CAS scholarships, visit cas.appstate.edu/students/scholarships.
