SJSU Campus Scholarships

The SJSU Financial Aid and Scholarship Office administers three types of scholarships: campus scholarships, department scholarships, and private scholarships. Many of the scholarships are open to new and continuing students and many do not require a social security number or AB 540 requirement. Students are encouraged to apply during the application season each spring but do note that many scholarships have different deadlines. You can view the list of SJSU scholarships here along with the different deadlines.
