Pratt International Students Scholarships, USA

Pratt offers undergraduate students various types of scholarships: a generous program of merit-based scholarships and restricted and endowed scholarships, as well as a variety of other special scholarships listed below under Additional Scholarships. In addition, need-based grants (gift) are added to the package to make the cost of attendance more affordable for more families.

Net Cost

In considering colleges, it is important to understand whether the schools you are looking at award merit scholarships in addition to need-based aid. Pratt has a generous merit-based scholarship program. Three out of five freshmen at Pratt receive a merit scholarship. Check our Net Price Calculator to estimate your merit and need-based aid.

Presidential Merit-Based Scholarships

NOTE: Pratt is test optional.  As a result, merit scholarships for high school applicants are based on GPA and portfolio only for all programs including architecture.  Construction Management is based on GPA only as the program does not require a portfolio. Note that for architecture applicants who waive the portfolio requirement scholarships will be based on GPA and test scores.

The Presidential Merit-based scholarships are awarded upon acceptance by the admissions office according to a carefully developed program. Transfer scholarships are based on portfolio and college GPA. All college transcripts are included in the calculation. Undergraduate students must maintain a 2.5 GPA to renew their scholarships each year. No separate scholarship application is required for consideration.

National Scholastic Scholarships

Pratt Institute recognizes The Scholastic Art Awards program of the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers as an appropriate and effective way for students interested in art and design to develop successful portfolios for college admission. Pratt reserves scholarships for qualified national awards recipients who independently and successfully apply to Pratt. These awards are in addition to any other merit scholarships the student has received from Pratt and are awarded for Scholastic awards in the senior year only. Pratt will award the following:

• Portfolio Gold Award Recipients in General Art or Photography: $3,000/year for four years
• Portfolio Silver Award Recipients in General Art or Photography: $2,000 a year for four years
• Gold Award Recipients Individual works: $1,000 a year for four years

The Alliance for Young Artists and Writers will officially notify us of your National Award. For more information on the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, visit the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers at http://www.artandwriting.org. (Please note that this award will not appear in your initial financial aid package since we usually do not receive official notification from the Alliance until after financial aid packages are determined.)
