What if I haven’t made my college decision yet?

If you’re still deciding where to attend college next year, Scholarship Weekend is an ideal time for you to visit campus. We encourage you to use the weekend to get to know Faith – to meet our leadership and students, to experience campus life, to consider scholarships and finances, and to really experience the heart of Faith.

Requirements

You are eligible to attend if you:

• • Are a high school senior in the 2024-25 school year or a transfer student.
  • Plan to enroll as a full-time college student in fall 2025.
  • Have completed your college application. Submit your application here.
  • Register for Scholarship Weekend. (Registration closes April 1, 2024)

We encourage parents to join us for the weekend, but students are also welcome to attend alone. Informative sessions on Friday will focus on college finances and will be beneficial to both students and parents.

Scholarship Process

All applicants will be awarded financial aid once they have completed the following scholarship process:

• • Interview for scholarships
  • Have your ACT or SAT scores sent to Faith
  • Completed your 2025-2026 FAFSA, which is scheduled to open in December 2024.

You do not need to have completed your ACT/SAT or your FAFSA in order to attend the weekend. However, it is required in order to be awarded a scholarship package. For more details on the scholarship process and the types of aid available, visit our financial aid page.

Interviews

Interviews are designed to learn more about the student’s plans as he feels God may be leading him as well as his academic achievements, leadership opportunities, church involvement, and personal spiritual growth.  Interviews are also an opportunity for the student to share why they want to attend Faith.
