Scholarships for 91原创鈥檚 Flex Pathway

Every Flex Pathway program offers full-tuition scholarships to Delaware residents. The SEED (Student Excellent Equals Degree) Scholarships and the 91原创 Associate Programs Scholarship are available to students with a minimum cumulative high school GPA of 2.5 and cover the two years of an associate degree. The SEED Scholarship may also cover a student鈥檚 third year if they transition to Newark to complete their bachelor鈥檚 degree.

Students who wish to be considered for the SEED Scholarship or the 91原创 Associate Programs Scholarship must file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). No separate scholarship application is required.听For questions about financial aid eligibility, contact Student Financial Services.

Not only can a SEED Scholarship cover tuition for the associate-degree programs below, but it can potentially cover up to one year in a bachelor's-degree program at 91原创's Newark campus as well. The scholarship can be applied to up to 10 semesters.

Students in the following Flex Pathway programs may be eligible for SEED Scholarship:

  • Associate in arts (University Studies)
