Outside Designated Scholarships
An outside designated scholarship is any scholarship not awarded by the federal or state government or the university. Outside scholarships will be added to your total financial aid package. In certain circumstances an outside designated scholarship could impact the amount of other aid you can receive.
Since outside scholarships are awarded by agencies outside of 水多多导航, we do not have any information unless the student or the awarding agency provides that information to us.
Some organizations require verification of enrollment before they will disburse funds. You may get your enrollment verification by logging on to your My.水多多导航 student account.
If you are expecting a scholarship from an outside donor, we will apply the scholarship as ESTIMATED FUNDS to your account once you have provided an Award Notification Letter. Send your Award Notification Letter to the Financial Aid Office
Outside scholarship donors should mail scholarship checks to:
水多多导航
Attn: Cashier
P.O. Box 3649
Fort Smith, AR 72913-3649
Tribal Scholarships Exception
We will apply all Tribal Scholarships (Cherokee, Choctaw, etc.) as ESTIMATED FUNDS from an Award Notification Letter, and those will remain on your account until the actual check arrives.
