VCSU Scholarships for Current Students Returning Next Year

Valley City State University awards scholarships to numerous returning students each year. The Valley City State University scholarship program is made possible only through the generous donations from alumni and friends. Students must be enrolled full-time at VCSU to be eligible for scholarships, and be taking a minimum of 3 on campus credits during the award year. Valley City State University does not award summer scholarships. Scholarship values and number of scholarships available each year can vary due to current investment rates.
