Scholarships are available

One App logoWe have great news! You may be eligible for scholarships as an incoming business student. At Ivy, we offer $2 million in scholarships, with an average scholarship award of $2,800. That can be combined with other scholarships and support. Once Iowa State University offers you admission, you can apply for scholarships. Make sure to  apply for admission now.

We have a long list of scholarships available, but that’s not something we want you to stress about. Completing one application ensures that you will be considered for all Ivy College of Business scholarships for which you are eligible. We’re doing all we can to make this easier for you.

Carson Endowed Business Scholarship

“Coming from an immigrant family, I knew that scholarships were going to be one of the only ways for me to follow my educational dream. Thanks to this scholarship, I was able to continue my education. On top of that, this scholarship demonstrated to me that others see my potential to succeed. There is no greater feeling than having people alongside you who believe in you and your goals.”
