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 from dozens of sources — including AGBU, the Armenian Relief Society, and university-specific programs — into a single directory. 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 — giving you time to prepare.

How often is this directory updated?

Every listing is verified against the organization's official page, and the directory is refreshed regularly with automated weekly checks of the sources. Each entry shows its verified date. Expired one-time deadlines are removed automatically, while recurring programs stay listed with their next expected opening.
