The university's own tuition and fees page states explicitly that "International students are also eligible for academic scholarships," confirming that international undergraduates qualify for this merit-based scholarship program on the same basis as domestic students.

  • International Scholarship

    Official page

    University of Jamestown offers a merit-based International Scholarship of up to $10,000 specifically targeted at incoming international freshmen beginning their undergraduate studies at the university. It is designed to help offset the cost of attendance for new international undergraduate students, since the university charges international students the same tuition rate as domestic students. Because the award is explicitly restricted to international incoming freshmen, it is by definition only available to international (non-US) undergraduate applicants, making it directly relevant for international undergraduates applying to UJ.

All scholarship information on Studee is provided for guidance only. Always check the university's official scholarship page for the latest information on eligibility, award amounts, deadlines, and application requirements.
