Students who have earned an IU academic scholarship may opt to apply one of their eight awarded semesters towards full-time summer enrollment. To do so, students must submit a Summer Awarding Request Form during the spring semester prior to the intended summer coursework.
Students who receive an IU academic scholarship or Office of Enrollment Management Scholarship and complete their undergraduate degree(s) in fewer than eight semesters may apply the remaining semesters of their award toward graduate coursework at Indiana University Bloomington. Participants are required to enroll full-time in an IU Bloomington graduate program within one year immediately following the completion of their undergraduate degree(s).
For students who meet these requirements, any remaining semesters of the IU academic scholarship or Office of Enrollment Management Scholarship will automatically apply to their IU Bloomington graduate program.
