Every Armenian scholarship, in one place.

Finding Armenian scholarships.

How do I find Armenian scholarships?

The simplest way is to use one verified directory instead of searching each organization separately. The ARF Shant Student Association gathers Armenian scholarships, fellowships, and grants into a single directory, drawn from dozens of sources: AGBU, the Armenian Relief Society, university-specific programs, and more. Filter by level, search by name or field, and apply directly. You can also submit any scholarship we're missing.

Do I need to be Armenian to apply?

It depends on the scholarship. Many Armenian scholarships require Armenian heritage or descent, but eligibility varies by program. Some are open to students studying Armenian topics, attending particular schools, or meeting financial-need and GPA criteria regardless of background. Always check the eligibility details on each scholarship's page and on the organization's official application before applying.

When do most Armenian scholarships open?

Most Armenian scholarship programs open applications in the winter and early spring, with deadlines commonly falling between March and June for the following academic year. Many are recurring annual programs, so this directory keeps them listed year-round and shows when each one is expected to reopen, which gives you time to prepare.

How often is this directory updated?

Every listing is checked by hand against the organization's official page before it is added, and the whole directory is reviewed on a rolling basis. The date of the last review is shown above the results and on every listing. Expired one-time deadlines drop off automatically, while recurring programs stay listed with their next expected opening.
