Merit Scholarships
St. Olaf College has a long-standing commitment to providing financial aid for students with academic strength and financial need. The college awards merit scholarships to students with distinguished high school records or who have demonstrated abilities as leaders in their communities and churches. This page briefly outlines the merit scholarships that will be awarded to students in the Class of 2015.
