All Opportunities

Welcome to Madison Scholarships Hub, aka ‘The Hub’, James Madison University’s Scholarship application portal.

Below you will find a listing, with a brief description, of JMU Foundation scholarships. Most scholarships are designated as “auto-match.” These opportunities have pre-determined qualifiers in place that allow the system to “auto-match” applicants to these opportunities based on your student record. Auto-match opportunities are noted with “none” in the Action column. You will be notified if you have been selected for a scholarship once the scholarship end date has passed and reviewing has been completed.

Certain scholarships require additional information from the applicant in order to be considered; these opportunities are noted with “Apply” in the Action column. If you click on the name of the opportunity, the system will show the full description and additional information/questions that have to be answered/provided in order to apply for this opportunity. You should do this prior to applying as it will be helpful to ascertain if you meet all requirements.

You may search for various scholarship criteria or qualifications by using the search bar below. Enter words such as “junior”, “financial need”, “Rockingham County”, etc. to help narrow your results.
