Introduction: The Virginia International University Scholarship Program is designed to provide encouragement and public recognition to students who have demonstrated academic excellence. The program is supported by generous contributions from individuals, organizations, corporations and foundations. Scholarships range from $500 to $7,400 per year. The primary criterion for awards from the University Scholarship Program is outstanding performance. Financial need is another important consideration.
