Honors Program
Miami University's Honors Program provides a number of unique opportunities for high-ability students. Honors applicants who wish to be considered for Miami's premier scholarship, the Harrison Scholarship, must apply as Early Decision or Early Action candidates, and all application materials, including those for admission, are due by November 3. Students who do not wish to be considered for the Harrison Scholarship may still apply for the University Honors Program and for Miami admission as Early Decision, Early Action, or Regular Decision candidates.

Financial Aid
To apply for all need-based financial aid, including grants, select scholarships, loans, and the federal work study program, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For priority financial aid consideration, you must submit the FAFSA between January 1 and February 15. (Miami's institutional code is 003077.) Accepted students who file a FAFSA by February 15 will be notified of their financial aid package in late March. The distribution of all merit-based scholarships, with the exception of the Harrison Scholarship (see "Honors Program" above), is based on applications for admission. For a list of Miami's merit awards, see University Merit Scholarships.
