Financial Assistance for International Students

Scholarship programs are special opportunities to receive additional awards to Baylor in varying amounts. These are also great opportunities to come to our award-winning campus to interact with faculty, staff, and learn more about the exciting opportunities Baylor offers. First-time undergraduate international students should consider the following options as they look to finance their Baylor education.

Merit Scholarships

Admitted first-time international students are automatically considered for merit scholarships based on a complete review of their high school academic performance.

International Student Scholarship

If you are an admitted first-year or transfer undergraduate international student, you can apply for the International Student Scholarship. To be considered, please submit these items by May 1:

  1. Complete the Baylor International Student Scholarship application form available through your goBAYLOR account after you've been accepted.

    Thank you for your interest. Unfortunately, the priority deadline to submit your International Student Scholarship request has passed and all of the 2022-2023 funds have been allocated. If you are interested in other opportunities and external scholarships, please visit our website.
     
  2. Complete the CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE. If you completed this step during the admission process, Baylor will use the submitted profile when reviewing scholarship eligibility. 

Work-Study

If your status allows you to work in the U.S., you can apply for a limited number of work-study jobs. These positions usually pay minimum wage for up to 20 hours per week.

Loans

Private student loans that require a U.S. citizen as a co-signer may be an additional resource.
