UM Scholarship Portal

The University of Montana now administers most scholarship funds through the UM Scholarship Portal. The portal is accessible to all UM students and offers one centralized general application, regardless of a student’s major or program of study. The UM Scholarship Portal replaces the General University Scholarship (GUS) application used by continuing students, as well as many individual departmental, school and college applications. Application deadlines vary by department and/or by opportunity.  Continuing students must submit a completed General Application by February 15 to be considered for the scholarships administered by the Financial Aid Office. Information about departmental scholarships is available at departmental websites and/or in the UM Scholarship Portal. https://umt.academicworks.com/users/sign_in
