NACOE Scholarship Opportunities
MSU's Norm Asbjornson College of Engineering is lucky to have very supportive donors, which allows for the awarding of substantial amounts of scholarship money to students seeking an engineering or computer science degree. In 2023 - 2024 we have nearly $1.4 million to award in scholarships.
Many of the scholarships are named for donors. Donors sometimes wish to support students at different points in their academic careers or in different fields of study (e.g. incoming freshman or a junior in a particular major). Because of this, we encourage students, including incoming freshman, to apply for scholarships each year.
Eligibility for need-based scholarships is determined by the MSU Office of Financial Aid. Students who wish to be considered for need-based scholarships must complete the FAFSA student aid application. Please reference the MSU Office of Financial Aid's webage for FAFSA deadlines.
