Southeast awards more than $24 million in scholarships each year. When you apply to Southeast, we review your application for most of our scholarships automatically without you having to fill out another form or apply separately. And, we award several scholarships at the time of admission, so you know your cost up front.


We know college is a big investment, so we want you to make a smart investment. We also know when it comes to taking tests to apply for scholarships, it's sometimes a burden--cost, time, and even test nerves can be real obstacles to doing well.

  • That's why we're a test optional school for admission AND many scholarships.
  • You will be admitted to Southeast with a 2.75 cumulative high school GPA and the required high school core curriculum.
  • You can self-report your academic record when you apply.
  • And even if you do not meet these requirements, we still want you to apply.
