All Opportunities

Thank you for visiting Lincoln University (PA) online scholarship portal where searching and applying for scholarships – it is as easy at 1-2-3!

To be considered for any scholarships, you MUST meet the following criteria:
· Lincoln University student
· Completed Free Application for Federal Aid (FAFSA) on file with the university

Each scholarship opportunity has its own individual criteria and guidelines. Some scholarships will only be open to students in certain majors, with certain cumulative GPAs etc.
Note to Incoming Students: While most of our scholarships require you to be a current Lincoln University student, there are some that are specifically for you. When searching, be sure to select and apply for incoming student scholarships.

Get started on your scholarship search now. It’s easy as 1-2-3!
1. Sign up on to the portal with your Lincoln email and setup a password.

2. Complete the General Application and any supplemental applications presented. You are automatically matched with scholarship opportunities for which you meet the criteria, and the portal provides additional “recommended” scholarships that may be available to you. You are not required to select individual scholarships for which you would like to receive consideration, as the auto-match feature of the application will automatically match you with the scholarships for which you meet the minimum eligibility criteria.

3. After you complete the applications, you’re done! You will receive any award notifications or regret emails via your Lincoln University email address. You can also check on the status of your application by logging back into the system at any time.

  • After completing each of these steps, you can see your application status on your dashboard. If your status is not listed as “submitted”, you have not fully completed your application.
  • If you are selected to receive a scholarship, you will receive an email notification to your student email address. Note: Qualifying/Matching does not guarantee you will receive a scholarship.

PLEASE NOTE: *All correspondence about your scholarship application and any awards you may receive will be done through your student email. *
