Current Students – The General Application is currently open for the 2024-25 academic year. Please complete the General Application first, then check for any additional scholarship applications you would like to complete.

Prospective Students – Students applying for admission to Virginia Tech who wish to apply for scholarships first need to complete the admissions application. After submitting your admissions application, you will should receive an email from the Office of Admissions with instructions on creating your admissions portal login credentials.

Students who applied for admission in a previous academic year should create new account credentials using the Applicant ID Number listed in the email from the Office of Admissions. Using login credentials from a previous admission application will result in a “Login Failed” error.
