University of Detroit Mercy Merit Scholarships and Grants

The University of Detroit Mercy Merit Scholarships and Grants are awarded to incoming first-year students based on information provided during the application process, including grade point average, ACT/SAT scores, as well as leadership, service, and other extracurricular activities. These academic scholarships and grants, valued up to $15,000, are automatically renewed each year for a total of four years (eight semesters, Fall and Winter) and can only be applied to the cost of full-time undergraduate tuition. Students must maintain a solid grade-point average, based on the University's Scholarship and Grant Renewal Policy, and continuous, full-time enrollment. These scholarships are not applied to the Summer term, may only be used for tuition expenses, and are not refundable. For these awards, there are three program exceptions available. For architecture students, they will receive a $4,000 academic scholarship each semester of the graduate phase of the program (two semesters). Architectural Engineering students are eligible to receive their undergraduate scholarship and grant offer for the entirety of the undergraduate Architectural Engineering program which is five years (10 semesters). And, for 5-year Physician Assistant students, they will receive a $2,500 academic scholarship each semester of the graduate phase of the program (six semesters). Students may choose a test-optional application. Students who apply for admission are automatically considered for all University scholarships and grants.
