Scholarships

At NKU, students are encouraged to follow their dreams and pursue an education, no matter their financial situation. Through scholarships, students are empowered to succeed at NKU and make their mark in our communities.


A gift to scholarships could support opportunities like...

  The UCAP Retention Scholarship provides aid to current students experiencing financial hardships so they can cover their account balances and enroll in their upcoming classes. 

  Alumni Board and Council Scholarships support continuing students, allowing them to finish strong and become Norse alumni.

  The Age-Friendly University Scholarship makes earning a degree possible for NKU's adult learners by providing support to offset the costs of being a student while managing heavy workloads, household management and care for others. 

  NKU Scholarships increase access to NKU by supporting students through tuition assistance, helping them to enroll and stay on track toward graduation. 


Your gift towards a scholarship program will ensure all students have the necessary resources to walk across the stage at graduation and help them become leaders in our region and world.
