Deadlines

NOVEMBER 1: KSU Kassebaum, Presidential, Putnam, Honors, Foundation, Millennium, Leadership, Medallion, Achievement, and Activity Scholarship Deadline

FEBRUARY 1: Engineering Priority Deadline & University General Deadline

It is recommended that the scholarship application be submitted early to the Office of Student Financial Assistance and transcript to the College of Engineering. This will assure timely processing of student information. One application for both deadlines is all that is necessary at Kansas State University.

Students, parents, and the MEP staff are thankful that the scholarship sponsors believe in our program and students. Scholarship funds are necessary to provide the incentive for academic excellence.
