How it works

Email finaid@hamline.edu if you know you’re receiving an outside scholarship. Be sure to include the name of the scholarship and the amount you’ve been offered.

Here’s how we disburse third-party or outside scholarships:

  • As funds arrive from scholarship foundations, we’ll disburse half for the fall term and a half for the spring term into your student account (unless otherwise specified by the scholarship agency)
  • In the case that a scholarship is co-payable to Hamline and the student, your funds will be credited after you endorse a check at the Cashier’s window
