How Do I Apply?

Our tuition discount and scholarships are offered as part of your comprehensive financial aid package, which may also include federal or state aid and loan programs. This package is unique to you and is built after you apply to the university and supply us with necessary information, including academic records. To determine your aid amount, please complete these steps:

  • Apply to the university
  • Submit your high school GPA and either your ACT or SAT scores
  • Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, also known as FAFSA

As a future BSN student, you’re also required to apply for nursing school in an application separate from the university admission application. Nursing applicants must also submit a resume to nursing@belhaven.edu.
