St. Lawrence rewards students who combine academic strength with leadership potential and a sense of adventure.
Selection beyond grades and scores
These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
Look for the school's stated criteria and whether an additional application is needed.
Confirm the current admission and scholarship deadlines directly with the school.
Check renewal, credit requirements and how other aid affects the award.
The fine print / Three questions to carry forward
Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.

Straight from the aid office
Per the Financial Aid Office, St. Lawrence University, August 2026. How we verify
Can the Financial Aid Office answer the GPA and scholarship award questions?
The Financial Aid Office is forwarding the question to Admissions because Admissions awards these scholarships and can provide more information on the GPA details.
“We are forwarding your message to Admissions as they award these scholarships and can provide more insight on the GPA information.”
Does St. Lawrence use set GPA/test score bands to determine merit aid amounts?
St. Lawrence uses a holistic review process for merit aid and does not have set bands mapping GPA/test scores to specific award amounts; admissions reviews GPA, course rigor, and test scores (if submitted) to determine aid.
“Therefore, we do not have set bands that map the amount of merit-based aid a particular student will receive. Instead, admissions will review all materials included with the application - such as individual GPAs, types of courses taken, and (if submitted) test scores - to determine what aid a student receives.”
How much is the Augsbury/North Country Scholarship if a student is selected as a Scholar?
If selected as an ANCS Scholar, a student receives $50,000 per year for four years, totaling $200,000.

Nominees not selected as Scholars but admitted receive at least $35,000 annually for four years, totaling $140,000.
“Nominees who are not selected as Scholars but are offered admission to St. Lawrence will receive an annual award of at least $35,000 for four years ($140,000 total).”

These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
The St. Lawrence Visit Award requires prospective students to complete an official visit by December 1 for Early Action applicants or February 20 for Early Decision or Regular Decision applicants; transfer applicants must visit before their application deadline.
St. Lawrence is one of them. The cohort minority (84 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
Every claim is checked against St. Lawrence’s own published materials. Below is the full reference set.
