Welcome to George Mason University Financial Aid Office of Scholarships!

The General Application for Spring 21 now opened for the following Conditional Applications and Scholarship Opportunities:

• First Generation Next Generation
• Students With Disabilities

Current Students
The General Scholarship Application automatically matches current Mason students (undergraduates, graduates, and admitted transfers) with scholarship opportunities based on their application and Mason student academic record (completed hours and Mason GPA).
Consideration for any opportunity requires completion of the General Application. After completing the General Application, applicants may be directed to a Conditional Application or the Recommended Opportunities page. Conditional Applications and Recommend Opportunities require a student to complete additional questions.

Graduate Students
Some graduate programs may use this application for incoming graduate students. All graduate students are encouraged to check within their department regarding assistantships, fellowships, and scholarship opportunities.
