Our Opportunities

Hi Roadrunners! Welcome to the Ramapo College Foundation Scholarship Opportunities Homepage.

The General Application for the 25/26 academic year is open. A new General App must be completed for each academic year.

Most scholarships will open for the 25/26 academic year on August 15 and close on Monday, October 6.

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 and portal 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 Awards may be rescinded if you do not provide required acceptance documents.
