Merit Scholarships for First-Year Students

It’s Time For Your Hard Work to Pay Off

BU is proud to recognize exceptional academic achievement, leadership, and community service through a variety of merit scholarships. We encourage high-achieving students to apply and take advantage of these prestigious opportunities, which reward not only strong grades and academic performance, but also talent, initiative, creativity, and impact in your school or community. You have accomplished so much to be proud of and we want to learn about how you will enrich the BU community. So, if you’re dedicated, driven, and ready to make a difference, we invite you to share your story with us.
