Southern Baptist Convention College Scholarships

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), a collection of churches and schools throughout the United States, does not require students to hold a membership to the organization in order to attend its schools. The SBC as a whole does not provide scholarship support, however; instead, it makes scholarships available on a school-by-school basis. Students seeking a scholarship at an SBC-affiliated school should contact that school's financial aid office.
