Financial Aid - Additional Resources for Traditional Undergraduates
THE INSTITUTION (ASBURY UNIVERSITY)
Scholarships, Awards, Grants: The scholarship program at Asbury University has been established to recognize outstanding academic achievement, leadership ability, excellence of performance and/or financial need. Recipients are selected on the basis of academic performance as shown by grade point average, test scores, and other criteria. Scholarships are awarded on an annual basis and are awarded only to those students pursuing their first bachelor’s degree on a full-time basis (minimum 12 hours per semester). Awards shall cover the traditional terms, fall and spring, only. Complete procedures for applying for scholarships may be obtained from the Financial Aid Office or the Admissions Office. Transfer students are entitled to receive a scholarship for the normal time frame expected to complete the degree requirements, not to exceed four years or eight semesters. In order to receive scholarships, students must be enrolled at and complete their financial aid through Asbury University. Students enrolled in the 3-2 Engineering program with the University of Kentucky are not eligible to receive Asbury University scholarships once they have enrolled at and are handling financial aid through the University of Kentucky.

A student who does not maintain a 3.5 cumulative GPA at the end of an academic year will forfeit the scholarship permanently.

Music Performance Scholarship: Music Performance Scholarships are available to prospective students with demonstrated abilities and interest in music. Eligible students include those intending to major or minor in music, and students only desiring to actively participate in music ensembles
Applicants must complete the Asbury University admissions application process, be admitted in good standing, perform an audition, submit a “Music Performance Scholarship” application, submit a Letter of Recommendation from a music professional who knows the applicant’s work, and have a minimum 2.25 (4.0 scale) high school or college GPA.

Keyboard and guitar students must also take private lessons on their auditioned instrument. Students must continue to participate into their eighth semester, unless student teaching. Students awarded large scholarships based on successful auditions in several areas may be assigned participation in several ensembles.

The specific ensemble requirements for each semester are as follows: Orchestral strings and harp enroll in the Orchestra, wind and percussion instruments enroll in Concert Band, vocalists enroll in the Asbury Chorale, handbell ringers enroll in Handbell Choir, and, in addition to private lessons, guitar and keyboard students are assigned an ensemble by their Area Coordinator.

Harry Hosier Scholarship: The Harry Hosier Scholarship is a scholarship designated for prospective African-American students in honor of Harry Hosier.
Harry Hosier, the first black preacher of Methodism, was born a slave near Fayetteville, North Carolina. Even though he was illiterate, he became one of the most eloquent preachers of his day. As Francis Asbury's itinerant companion, he became a popular orator who was able to reach out to the enslaved, the poor, and the uneducated. The purpose of this scholarship is to provide and maintain an awareness of the value the University places on ethnic diversity and its attention to multicultural concerns on campus; therefore, race will be a factor in making the selection.
Two scholarships equal to 70% of tuition are awarded to new students who demonstrate outstanding scholastic achievement. U.S. citizenship and a minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale are required for consideration. Evaluation will also include academic records, test scores, rank in class, extracurricular activities (particularly as they relate to African-American ethnic minority concerns), leadership ability, quality of program, letters of recommendation, an essay and an interview. This award may be renewed for up to four years provided the recipient maintains at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA and continues to demonstrate the outstanding qualities that led to the selection. A recipient who does not meet the minimum GPA at the end of an academic year shall forfeit the scholarship permanently.
Jose Velazquez Scholarship: In keeping with the goal of making Asbury a more multicultural community, the University has established the Jose Velazquez Scholarship for Hispanic students to encourage enrollment of North American students of Hispanic origin. This scholarship honors the memory of the Rev. Jose Velazquez, a former board member of Asbury University. Rev. Velazquez was an outstanding example of Christian leadership in Hispanic communities of Chicago, Illinois, and El Paso, Texas.
Two scholarships equal to 70% of tuition are awarded to new students who demonstrate outstanding scholastic achievement.

This scholarship does not apply to those students who are transfers or have academic scholarships.
International Student Scholarship: Each year the Scholarship Committee will select new international applicants to receive partial scholarships. Selection will be based upon academic standing, letters of recommendation and an essay written by the student. The awarding of these scholarships to new recipients will be made in early spring each year. This scholarship is available only to persons who are not citizens of the United States and/or Canada.
The purpose of this scholarship is to serve the international community through the education of young leaders, to provide qualified international students the opportunity of an education at Asbury University and to maintain an awareness of international concerns through the presence of students from other countries on campus. Deadline for application is January 1.
These scholarships may be renewed for a total of four years or eight semesters (excluding any summer terms) as long as the student maintains satisfactory academic progress. Failure to maintain acceptable academic progress will result in notification of scholarship non-renewal.
Asbury University Alumni Honors Award: Two awards consisting of 5% of tuition will be given annually to entering freshmen who are the direct descendants of an Asbury University alumnus. These are one-time awards and are not renewable. The scholarships will be awarded to students who have outstanding high school records. A letter of application must be received by April 15 by the Alumni Relations Office who selects the recipients. For detailed information, please contact the Alumni Relations Office.
Church Match Grant: The Church Match program was established to encourage churches to support students with scholarship aid. Asbury University will match scholarships awarded by churches up to $1000 per academic year. The Church Match Grant is not dependent on need and students do not need to fill out a FAFSA to qualify. Gifts will be accepted from churches and mission agencies only and the annual gifts must be received at the University by the first day of classes of an award year. Students enrolling for the spring semester (who were not enrolled in the fall) need to have funds in by the first day of classes of the spring semester. The Church Match Grant will not be awarded for the Summer Term. Applications are required and are available online at www.asbury.edu/financialaid/forms.

This waiver also applies to husband and wife who are both enrolled full-time in the traditional undergraduate programs at Asbury University.
Institutional Employment: Eligible students who have filed their employment application with the Human Resources Office may obtain on-campus employment in such areas as offices, laboratories, dormitories, the library, the cafeteria, the physical plant, or the tutoring center. Students may work up to twenty hours per week at the approved minimum wage level. Applications are required and are available at www.asbury.edu/financialaid/forms.
