NYU CERA PhD Scholarship 2027 - Fully Funded at Tandon
The NYU CERA PhD Scholarship 2027 is funded doctoral study in the Climate, Energy and Risk Analytics Lab at NYU Tandon School of Engineering, led by Assistant Professor Yuki Miura. The lab's own recruitment notice promises full tuition coverage, a PhD stipend, health insurance and research and conference support. You start by filling in the CERA interest form, then apply formally to the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering PhD and name Yuki Miura as your intended advisor. Tandon reviews all PhD applications for Fall entry by 1 December, and the lab reads interest forms on a rolling basis, so early is better.
Harvard University MBA Scholarship 2027 - 75% of Tuition
The Harvard University MBA Scholarship is funded by the Boustany Foundation and granted once every two years to a single candidate joining Harvard Business School. It pays 75% of tuition fees and covers travel, accommodation and food for a compulsory two-month internship at the Foundation's office in Monaco. You can only apply once Harvard Business School has offered you a place, and the Foundation asks for a CV with a photograph, official GMAT scores and your acceptance letter. The next award goes to the class commencing Autumn 2027, with candidacies closing on 31 May 2027 and the winner named during June 2027.
NASA JPL Year-Round Internship 2027 - Paid STEM
The NASA JPL Year-Round Internship Program pays undergraduate and graduate STEM students to work on Lab at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory during the academic year and over the summer, with part-time and full-time terms offered all year. There is no single closing date. JPL accepts applications continuously, keeps each one active in its system for eight months, and lets mentors search that pool when they have a project to staff. Participants get a weekly monetary award, and full-time in-person interns whose university sits more than 50 miles from JPL also get a housing and travel allowance. The programme is open to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents enrolled at accredited U.S. universities, with a 3.0 GPA minimum and 3.5 preferred, and your first term has to run 10 weeks or more.
NIAF Scholarship 2027 - $2,500 to $12,000 Awards
The NIAF Scholarship is the National Italian American Foundation's annual award programme for Italian American students at US colleges and universities. Individual awards run from $2,500 to $12,000, and the Foundation says it has put over $10,000,000 into scholarships since it was founded. One application matches you to every fund you qualify for, from business and STEM awards to funds for music, law, Italian studies and students from particular states. You need an active NIAF membership, a 3.5 GPA, US citizenship or permanent resident status, and full-time enrollment for Fall 2027. The application reopens on 1 December 2026 and closes at 11:59 p.m. EST on 1 March 2027.
Harry S. Truman Scholarship 2027 - $30,000 Award
The Harry S. Truman Scholarship is the federal memorial to the thirty-third President and the best known graduate award in the USA for students headed into public service. Scholars receive up to $30,000 toward a graduate or professional degree, a required Leadership Week in Missouri, an optional summer in Washington DC, and a direct hiring authority with the federal government. You apply in your junior year, through your campus, and the Foundation picks one Scholar from each state plus up to 15 at-large Scholars. Nominations for the 2027 competition are due by 11:59 p.m. in your own time zone on 2 February 2027.
NRF Founders Engineering Scholarship 2027 - $13,000
The NRF Founders Engineering Scholarship is the Natural Refrigeration Foundation's award for undergraduate engineering students heading into the natural refrigeration industry. Applications for the 2027-2028 academic year are open now and close on 31 January 2027, with recipients expected to be announced in June 2027. A junior-year award pays $4,000 in two installments of $2,000. The senior-year award pays $9,000 in two installments of $4,500 for recipients who attended IIAR's Annual Natural Refrigeration Conference and Expo in the spring of their junior year, or $4,000 for those who did not, which puts the full package at up to $13,000 of tuition assistance. Funds go straight to your college. The award also covers conference registration, coach airfare, lodging and meals, and puts you in front of the people who hire in this field.
Berea College Scholarship 2027 - No Tuition, Fully Funded
Berea College charges no student tuition, and has not done so since 1892. Every admitted student receives the Tuition Promise Scholarship, which covers whatever tuition is left after federal, state, institutional and private aid has been applied. Tuition is listed at $56,900 for 2026-2027, and Berea funds as much of the $5,000 housing and $4,142 food charge as your FAFSA allows, which is why 85 per cent of the fall 2025 class paid nothing at all. From Fall 2027, the intake this guide covers, Berea guarantees 100 per cent of tuition, housing, food, fees and supplies for every enrolled student with no loans. Admission is restricted to students with high financial need and strong academic promise, and every student works at least 10 hours a week in the Labor Program.
Iowa State University Scholarship 2027 - Up to $40,000
The Iowa State University Scholarship most international undergraduates chase is the International Merit Scholarship, awarded to first-year and transfer students assessed international tuition rates. First-year students can receive an Award of Achievement worth $5,000 to $10,000 a year, up to $40,000 across eight semesters, or an Award of Distinction worth $2,000 to $4,000 a year. Transfer students have their own smaller ladder that runs up to $20,000 over five semesters. Unlike the automatic International Student Excellence Award, the Merit Scholarship needs the OneApp scholarship application, and the Fall 2027 priority date for first-year applicants is 15 February 2027.
Alabama Presidential Scholarship 2027 - $28,000/Year
The Alabama Presidential Scholarship is the second-highest automatic merit award at The University of Alabama, and you never fill in a separate form for it. Out-of-state and international freshmen entering in 2027 get $28,000 per year on a 3.50 GPA with a 32 to 36 ACT or a 1420 to 1600 SAT. Alabama residents qualify a tier lower, from a 30 ACT or a 1360 SAT, and their award is the value of tuition rather than a fixed sum. The UA Undergraduate App doubles as the scholarship application, and the priority deadline for Summer and Fall 2027 entry is 4 December 2026.
Eastern Michigan Presidential Scholarship 2027 - Full Ride
The Eastern Michigan Presidential Scholarship is the most prestigious award Eastern Michigan University gives an incoming first-year student. It covers full tuition plus room and board for four years, which EMU values at roughly $100,000, and every Presidential Scholar joins The Honors College. Applications for the class entering Fall 2027 close on 15 December 2026, and EMU says no exceptions will be made. You qualify on a 3.85 high school GPA with no test score, or on a 3.5 to 3.84 GPA paired with a 25 composite ACT or a 1200 SAT. A campus visit during the 2026 calendar year is part of the application, and a virtual honors session counts.
SMART Scholarship 2027 - Full Tuition, $30k-$46k
The SMART Scholarship is the Department of War Scholarship-for-Service Program for STEM students in the USA. It pays full tuition with no monetary cap, an annual stipend of $30,000 to $46,000 depending on degree level, a health insurance allowance up to $2,500 a year and a miscellaneous allowance up to $1,000 a year, then places you in a civilian job at the sponsoring facility that picked you. Every funded year carries one year of service in return. The cycle closing at 5 p.m. EST on 4 December 2026 funds study from Fall 2027, and it is open to citizens of the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
Miami University Presidential Fellows Scholarship 2027
The Presidential Fellows Scholarship is Miami University's top merit award, and it is a genuine full ride: tuition, mandatory fees, housing and food for four years, plus a one-time academic enrichment fund of up to $5,000. Miami publishes the cohort size as fifteen students a year, all of them inside the Honors College, though the most recent incoming class came in at 22. There is no separate scholarship form. You indicate your interest on the Miami admission application, and your complete file has to be in by the firm 1 December 2026 deadline for Fall 2027 entry. One thing changed this cycle: self-reported ACT or SAT scores are now required for Presidential Fellows consideration, even though Miami stays test optional for everyone else. International applicants are eligible, and the Class of 2030 cohort includes a student from Mongolia.
