To be eligible for need-based scholarships, you must have an up-to-date (2025-26) FAFSA filed with the MUSC Office of Financial Aid. Once your FAFSA data is received, your scholarship application will automatically be updated.

You will be prompted to complete a general and college-specific application, which automatically applies you for scholarships for which you qualify.
In some cases (not all), you may be recommended to apply to scholarships that require additional information.
After you complete the applications by your college’s posted deadline, you are done!
