Frequently
Asked Questions
What is the intent to apply
deadline? Can I still apply/contact
Dean De Stefanis if I miss the intent to apply deadline?
The
intent to apply deadline serves to notify Dean De Stefanis that you are
interested in working with her on your scholarship or fellowship application.
You
many still contact Dean De Stefanis and/or submit an application after the
intent to apply deadline has passed. Be
sure to submit all completed materials to Dean De Stefanis on or before the
campus deadline.
Why is the campus deadline before
the actual deadline?
Two reasons: (1) This helps to ensure
that each student receives the time and attention required to generate the
strongest possible application and (2) some scholarships require an earlier
campus deadline, particularly those requiring institutional endorsement.
Can I submit an application on my
own?
Sometimes
yes and sometimes no. Some
scholarships require institutional endorsement or that the named
representative from Manhattanville submit the application.
If you are not sure, check with Dean De Stefanis.
Are the scholarships only for
students who attend graduate school at Manhattanville College?
No.
Scholarships can be applied to graduate study at other institutions.
Are scholarships only for graduate
school?

professional studies (i.e. law school, medical school, dental school, etc). (link to general info
page). Listings for undergraduate scholarships can be
found on the scholarships & fellowships website (link to undergraduate
scholarships).
I am in the 5 year program – am I
eligible?
It depends on the scholarship. Be
certain to read the scholarship’s website very carefully.
How many scholarships can I apply
for?
There is no limit to the number of
applications you may submit; however, you may be limited in how many you may
accept. Some scholarship
foundations may ask you to report other awards.
