Jabs Student Scholarships

Thank you for your interest in the Montana State University Jake Jabs College of Business & Entrepreneurship (Jabs) Scholarship program!

Scholarships for Current/Continuing Students:

Last year, the Jake Jabs College of Business and Entrepreneurship (Jabs) awarded over $250,000 in scholarships to students who took the time to apply. All Jabs Business College students planning to enroll full-time next academic year, including Accounting graduate students, are eligible to apply. Why would you pass up a chance at “free money” to finance your education?

The 2023-2024 Scholarship Application period is now closed.

Many of the scholarships awarded by Jabs are need-based. To be eligible for these scholarships, students MUST also complete the FAFSA student aid application so that the MSU Financial Aid Office can determine your financial need. Need-based scholarships will not be awarded to students who have not completed the FAFSA application.

FAFSA information can be found here: http://www.montana.edu/financialaid/priority.html.

Scholarship winners will be notified by Late Spring 2023.

There are also scholarships available through the Bracken Center: International Fellowship Funding and the PRIDE/Professionalism Award.
