Donor-Funded Scholarship Application Portal

Each year, more than $3 million in donor-funded scholarships is awarded to help Radford students pay for tuition, fees, room, board, books and other education-related expenses. Applicants can apply for many donor-funded scholarships by completing a single application. There are also apply-to scholarships that can be viewed after the general application is submitted.

The 2027-28 application portal opens on Sunday, November 15, 2026. The priority deadline to apply is February 5, 2027.

Newly Admitted Students
You are eligible to apply for donor-funded scholarships, even if you have not yet confirmed your enrollment.

  • First, activate your OneCampus account if you have not already. You will need your username and claim code to activate your OneCampus. You can find both in your Highlander Portal.
  • Then, come back to this page and log in using your OneCampus credentials. Please note, access to the application may take up to 24 hours after you create your account.

Returning Students

  • Many donor-funded scholarships are renewable, but you must reapply each year to have them renewed. You must also continue to meet the requirements for the scholarship.
  • If you have applied previously, a portion of your application will populate, but you should update your application just as you would your resume.

Important Notes

  • FAFSA: Many donor-funded scholarships are need-based and require students to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For maximum consideration, complete the FAFSA as soon as possible. Some donor-funded scholarships require the FAFSA, but financial need is only a priority—not a requirement.
  • Browser Compatibility: Internet Explorer is not a compatible web browser. Please sign in using the most up-to-date version of Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari.
  • Uploading Documents: If you are asked to upload a resume, essay or other supporting documents, please know that the system will not allow for punctuation (commas, apostrophes and periods) to be used in the file name (e.g. my.name.Resume.2023).
  • Editing Your Application: You can edit your application at any time while the scholarship portal is open.
  • Application Status: After you submit your general application, you will be able see your application status on your dashboard. If your status is not “submitted”, you have not fully completed your application. Carefully review your application for missing information and make sure you sign and date it.
  • Thanking Your Donor: Radford University requires students to thank their donors or scholarship contacts. Once awarded, students will be required to accept their scholarship, complete post-acceptance questions and submit a thank-you letter.
  • Additional Opportunities: Check your Radford University email or view the portal for additional scholarship opportunities that may be added. New scholarships, as well as scholarships that need to be re-awarded, may be awarded anytime throughout the year. Awarding will be ongoing until all available awards are made.
  • Email Notification: If you are selected to receive a scholarship, you will receive an email notification from foundscholar@radford.edu to your Radford email account.
