Scholarships
Providing access to higher education through scholarships is increasingly important. Foundation and corporate scholarship donors assist students in realizing their dreams and reaching their fullest potential, and they empower the University to recruit the best and brightest students. Scholarships enable students to pursue their goals and can help to distinguish resumes from other candidates during the employment interview process. Fairleigh Dickinson University has established partnerships with myriad institutional donors and continues to develops new relationships for scholarships support across a variety of needs and interests. One such need is the national demand for future healthcare workforce with healthcare professionals who culturally represent the communities they serve. FDU’s Henry P. Becton School of Nursing & Allied Health offers a number of scholarship opportunities for eligible students made possible by:
• Helene Fuld Health Trust
• Edward W. & Stella C. Van Houten Memorial Fund
• Walter and Louise Sutcliffe Foundation
• BD.
Pharmacists, who play an important role in the delivery of healthcare services, must earn a doctor of pharmacy degree, which takes six years to complete. To support our students as they work towards their PharmD., FDU’s School of Pharmacy & Health Sciences provides scholarship awards to eligible students made possible by:
• Allergan Foundation
• CVS Health Foundation
• Walgreens
• Novartis
• BD
The diverse scholarship opportunities that reflect the University’s and institutional donors' respective goals include:

Charlotte W. Newcombe Foundation: The Foundation has created an scholarship endowment for students enrolled in FDU’s Regional Center for Students with Learning Disabilities at the Metropolitan campus. |
