Freshman Scholarships
98% of undergraduate students receive some gift aid (free money!) from Valpo to help reduce the cost of attendance. All incoming freshman and transfer students receive consideration for merit scholarships at the time of application for admission. We do not have a separate process or deadlines for applying for scholarships. To maintain any merit or academic-based award from Valpo, a student must maintain full-time enrollment and Satisfactory Academic Progress.

Estimate Your Cost
The Net Price Calculator helps prospective students and families estimate the cost of attending Valparaiso University after grants and scholarships. Based on recent student award data, it provides an estimate of financial aid and remaining costs to help families plan ahead.
These estimates are not guarantees of aid, and students must still complete all admissions and financial aid requirements by the appropriate deadlines. Families with unusual financial circumstances are encouraged to contact the Office of Financial Aid for assistance.
