Scholarships

General
Through the generous support of many industry and community organizations, the Rinker School awards close to $50,000 in scholarships each academic year. The School has approximately 30-40 scholarship awards available, typically $1,000 – $2,000 each in value.

Applications are available during the first few weeks of each Fall and Spring semester.  Incomplete or late applications will not be considered. Also, those students graduating in that semester in which the scholarship application is due are not eligible to apply.  Disbursement of scholarship funds are generally made by the middle of December and middle of April, however non-resident alien payments could take longer.

Please note that all students are strongly encouraged to meet with a UF Financial Aid advisor in Criser Hall if they have any type of financial aid or loans to determine if receiving a CM Scholarship will affect their aid status or eligibility PRIOR to applying for the CM scholarships. This is important, as some students have been placed in “pay back status” after receiving a CM Scholarship. Please note that there is nothing the School can do to alleviate this if it happens, that is why it is very important for you to know what your eligibility and status are prior to applying for any additional aid.

Aside from the scholarships that CM administers, CM periodically receives scholarship information and/or applications from various outside organizations such as: The National Housing Endowment, Centex Homes, Construction Association of South Florida, and NAWIC, to name a few.
