Scholarship Displacement

Scholarship displacement occurs when colleges and universities reduce or remove their institutional gift aid, other scholarships or grants from a student’s financial aid awards due to the student receiving an external scholarship that puts the student’s total amount in scholarships above their federally determined financial need or the school’s Cost of Attendance (COA).

This may leave the amount a student must take out in loans or need to cover in out-of-pocket cost the same despite the student having worked to earn an additional scholarship.
