Awards and Scholarship Opportunities

Lehigh's College of Education is committed to excellence, integrity, equitable community, intellectual curiosity, collaboration, and leadership.  Our faculty, staff and students truly embody these ideals. All put forth tremendous effort to contribute to Lehigh University, as well as to the local and global communities.  As a result, we are committed to recognizing these individuals.

Also, each year our academic programs in the College have an opportunity to award a limited number of departmental scholarships in the form of tuition waivers.  The general preference for awarding such program-administered departmental scholarships is first to full-time students pursuing a doctorate, then part-time students pursuing a doctorate, followed by full-time students pursuing a master’s degree, and lastly to part-time students pursuing a master’s.

The COE scholarship application for the summer 2025 term and the scholarship application for the 2025-2026 academic year will be open from November 15, 2024 through December 15, 2024.  

Summer tuition awards will be announced by April 15, 2025 and tuition awards for the 2025-2026 academic year will be announced by  June 13, 2025.  The College will refer back to these submissions in the case additional awards become available.

Please note that scholarship credits are awarded by the College with program director recommendations. Scholarship tuition credits can only be used for coursework offered by the College of Education.  Changing your program after receipt of an award will result in forfeiture of those awarded scholarship credit(s).
