The University at Buffalo offers the most valuable merit scholarships in the SUNY system. Last year, we administered more than $360 million in scholarships and financial aid to our students.
Prospective freshmen must apply and submit all application materials by Dec. 15 to be considered for merit scholarships. The University Honors College manages the Presidential Scholarship, which requires a separate application.
UB’s top entering freshmen are awarded Presidential Scholarships. This scholarship is valued at $15,000 annually (when combined with other scholarships and grants, this amount may not exceed the cost of attendance), renewable for four years of undergraduate study. While there is no minimum criteria for consideration as it is based on each year’s incoming class, for the 2019 Presidential scholar class, the unweighted gpa ranged from a 94% up to 100% and the SAT score ranged from 1350 to 1600 (ACT composite score ranged from a 29 to 36). Students must be United States citizens or permanent residents. Students who receive Presidential Scholarships are automatically admitted to the Honors College.
Please note, we are no longer accepting applications for fall 2020. Contact Tim Matthews, Assistant Director, at trm7@buffalo.edu to request the Presidential Scholarship Application or with your questions regarding fall 2021 enrollment.
