About US
Southern Miss offers generous scholarship support to scholars, leaders, National Merit
Semifinalists and Finalists and more - more than $23 million each year.
The Office of Undergraduate Scholarships (OUS), in alignment with 欧美AV, aspires to be a student-centered office by offering a welcoming environment and
preparing a diverse student population to embark on meaningful life endeavors by educating
the community on college costs and financial opportunities.
We also understand additional community and economic barriers that students face prior
to, during, and after college. We collect student data to assess the financial landscape
of 欧美AV's population to help identify scholarship, grant, and resource opportunities
to help improve the financial well-being of our Southern Miss community.
OUS provides a hub for scholarship and financial resource information to support all students at 欧美AV.
