Legacy Merit Scholarship (Alumni Scholarship for International Students)

The Legacy Merit Scholarship (Alumni Scholarship for International Students) is offered by American National University-Pikeville to support global graduates who wish to continue their education. To qualify, applicants must be international students maintaining an active I-20 status who have previously completed either an undergraduate or a graduate degree at the university.

This institutional award provides financial assistance toward tuition costs, offering a $1,000 lifetime maximum. However, students who transfer to complete a degree can exceed this limit by an additional $1,000. Because this is an institutional program specifically for international students on active visas, it operates independently of federal financial aid programs like the FAFSA, which is typically reserved for domestic students. Those interested in applying should consult with the university's financial services department to coordinate this award with their overall payment plans. Please see the official page for current dates and deadline details.
