Our Opportunities
Hi Roadrunners! Welcome to the Ramapo College Foundation Scholarship Opportunities Homepage.
Scholarships for students affiliated with the Office of Specialized Services (OSS) are now open. Most scholarships will open for the 25/26 academic year on August 15 and close on October 5. Please note that a new general application must be completed for each academic year.
How to apply:
- Log in using your Ramapo username and password
- Complete a general application
- After submitting the general application, you will be auto-matched to scholarships for which you meet the criteria. Auto-matching with a scholarship does not guarantee you will receive that scholarship.
- You may also be presented with apply-to scholarship opportunities. Click on each scholarship opportunity and fill out the additional information to determine your eligibility. This may include supplementary essays, letters of recommendation, or other documentation.
- To see the status of your apply-to applications, go to My Applications. Completed applications will have a “Submitted” status.
- You can also utilize the “Search by Keyword” function to search for scholarships (ie. major, financial need, adult student, volunteer, leadership, first generation, etc.)
- Outside (non-Ramapo) scholarship opportunities are viewable under Opportunities, External.
IMPORTANT INFO:
- Each scholarship has a deadline. Please check the website frequently for new scholarships and deadlines.
- You will need to complete an application each new academic year.
- Scholarships are awarded on a rolling basis throughout the academic year. You will only be notified if you have been selected to receive a scholarship.
- If you are selected, you will see the award under My Applications and will receive an email to your ramapo.edu account.
- Scholarships require acceptance documents including a thank you note/video to the donor. Awards may be rescinded if you do not provide required acceptance documents.
