Determining Your Financial
Eligibility for the Phillips Scholarship

click here
Financial eligibility for the Phillips Scholarship
is determined by several factors:
- Substantial unmet need
- Heavy Student loan burden
- Admission and subsequent enrollment in an institution with a liberal
outside grant policy (i.e. the school reduces self-help and unmet
need before reducing its own grants when a student receives outside
scholarships).
Before applying for the Phillips scholarship,
you should determine if you qualify financially. Using your financial
aid award letter from the school you will be attending and the correct Cost
of Attendance figure from our list, make the following calculations.
