Saint Louis University Scholarships for International Students 2027

Yes. Saint Louis University notes that its online programs are eligible for scholarships and financial aid, and the School for Professional Studies (SPS) also offers scholarships specifically for adult students in online degree programs.

Scholarships at SLU are broadly available across disciplines (often university-wide, plus additional opportunities by program/department), so you’ll see funding in areas like business, engineering, STEM fields (e.g., computer science/data science), humanities/social sciences, health sciences and more.

From the scholarship-recipient side, Edvanio pursued Public Health (Maternal and Child Health) after working in maternal/child health and said he was inspired by “the significant challenges women and children face in accessing health services” in his community.

SLU scholarships can be available to many nationalities, including international students broadly; some awards are general (open to a wide range of applicants).

Often yes for international applicants, unless you qualify for a waiver. SLU’s international admission guidance says international applicants must demonstrate English proficiency for admission review using official scores from accepted options (examples include TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, SAT/ACT English measures, or Duolingo), and SLU also lists minimum score benchmarks (note that some graduate programs may set higher minimums).

This aligns with Edvanio’s experience: “As an international student, I was also required to have an English certification,” and he added that practicing with Duolingo “helped me significantly.”

It depends on the program, and many programs use a holistic review rather than a single “cutoff.” For scholarships, some awards do state GPA expectations. For instance, Global Scholarships’ listing for SLU’s Presidential Scholarship includes a minimum cumulative GPA requirement (3.85 by the end of junior year) and also requires additional materials (essay, résumé and recommendations). In the recipient stories, Edvanio reported a previous GPA of 3.68 before starting his SLU master’s program.

Typically, SLU scholarships do not have a universal age limit; eligibility is usually based on your program (undergraduate/graduate), academic profile, and the specific scholarship rules.

A strong academic record helps, and many SLU scholarships emphasize academics plus factors like leadership and service; depending on your major, additional program/department scholarships may also exist.

Common undergraduate international documents include: an online application (with an essay for first-time freshman applicants), academic records/transcripts in English translation for all secondary and post-secondary institutions attended (plus official final transcripts and any external school-leaving exam results), and official proof of English proficiency sent directly from the testing agency; SLU also recommends (but may not require) items like a résumé of activities, recommendation letters and an interview. For graduate degrees, international documents include transcripts, letters of recommendation, CV, research proposals, etc.

For undergraduate admission, SLU’s international admissions page states there is no application fee. However, fees can exist in some graduate/professional workflows. Check the latest guidelines for the program that you are applying.
