Our Opportunities

To view a list of Minnesota State Mankato scholarship opportunities, click “Ours” under “Opportunities” above. This list shows all scholarships in the system, not scholarships for which you are receiving consideration.

Automatch scholarships will appear with “None” listed under the “Action” column – this means no additional action after completing the General Application is required for consideration.
The “Deadline” column indicates the deadline to complete the application to receive consideration. This is not the deadline to accept the award.
Click into an opportunity to see eligibility criteria and any additional question or essay requirements that will be needed for application submission.

Please Note: Listed opportunities are for Fall 2021 and later. Most scholarships for CURRENTLY ENROLLED students are available for application submission during the month of February.
