Iowa State University — OneApp Scholarship Portal (Check Spring Deadlines)

About This Opportunity

If you are planning to attend Iowa State University in fall 2026, the scholarship work is not over yet. ISU's OneApp portal (scholarships.iastate.edu) is the single application for hundreds of ISU scholarships — departmental awards, college-based scholarships, and special interest funds. While the main automatic merit consideration deadline (tied to your admission application) has passed, many departmental and college-specific scholarships have spring deadlines that run through March, April, and May 2026. Log in to the OneApp portal now, check which scholarships are still open, and apply. You will also want to make sure your FAFSA is on file and your Iowa Financial Aid Application (IFAA) is submitted at educate.iowa.gov — ISU financial aid packages include both federal and Iowa state aid. If you have questions, contact ISU Student Financial Aid at (515) 294-2223. Council Bluffs students attending ISU pay Iowa in-state tuition and are eligible for the same awards as any Iowa resident.
