How to Apply for Scholarships

To help match your profile to available scholarships, Bellevue University uses the CommunityForce Online scholarship application.

Apply Now

CommunityForce is a secure cloud based scholarship application system. It integrates with BRUIN so you will not have to create a separate account. Simply login with your BRUIN credentials to begin applying for scholarships. The system will confirm you are a student, save you time by pre-filling in some of your student information, and will still allow you to manage your own information and check award status from any computer.

Before you begin completing your scholarship application through CommunityForce, read Tips for Applying for a Scholarship.
