Athletic Scholarships

General Information

Athletic scholarships are offered by the head coaches of Virginia Tech’s collegiate teams as well as noncompetitive participation (i.e. videographers, trainers) and are awarded on the basis of athletic ability and academic eligibility. 

Athletic scholarships are offered in the following colligate sports:

An additional application (i.e. FAFSA, General Scholarship Application) is not required.  In order to be eligible for financial aid other than athletic scholarship, all athletes should complete a FAFSA.  Pell Grants, Stafford Loans, Parent PLUS Loans, and other grants require FAFSA data before they can be awarded.

The Office of University Scholarships and Financial Aid award scholarships on the recommendation of the Department of Athletics.  An Athletic Scholarship Award Letter will be emailed via a Virginia Tech email, if applicable, to each recipient.  Access to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) rules and regulations as well as procedures and policies are included in the award letter.  Instructions for accepting the award will also be included for new recipients.

For more information on athletic scholarship opportunities contact the first person under the area of interest through the Athletics Staff Directory.  Questions concerning financial aid should be directed to Counseling Coordinator for Athletics, Dawn Brown (dlbrown@vt.edu) or by calling the Office of University Scholarships and Financial aid and indicating that you are a student athlete.
