University of Chicago Undergraduate Scholarships

The University of Chicago Undergraduate Scholarships are a set of merit- and need-based awards for students admitted to undergraduate (bachelor's) programmes at the University of Chicago. The university offers multiple named scholarships, fee waivers, and internship awards to help cover tuition, living costs, and other educational expenses. Specific awards target groups such as first-generation students, children of police and firefighters, Chicago Public Schools graduates, veterans, and students from partner schools.

Examples include partial tuition scholarships (four-year), the First Phoenix Scholarship ($20,000 over four years), full-tuition waivers for certain groups (Police and Fire Scholarship, CPS graduates, partner-school students), housing and tuition via the Evans Scholarship for caddies, internship/research awards (President’s Scholar and Dean’s Scholar: $5,000 for two summers), and other need- and merit-based aid.

Open to applicants of all nationalities applying at the undergraduate (bachelor's) level; specific scholarships may have additional criteria or target groups.

Submit an application for admission to the University of Chicago and the required financial aid forms (e.g., CSS Profile, FAFSA where applicable). Review and apply to specific scholarship programmes as required and submit any additional documents requested by each award.
