All Fort Valley State University athletic programs award some athletics-based scholarships.
Basic policy for the awarding of athletic scholarships -
FVSU provides athletic scholarships to support the academic pursuits of its student-athletes. Students are expected to participate in sports because they love to do so. This means that money provided for student-athletes in the form of athletic grants-in-aid is to support their pursuit of an education, not to support their participation in a sport. The intent of this policy is to spend our valued and limited scholarship dollars on students who are using them for the purpose intended: their education.
All funds for scholarships to student-athletes are generated from fundraising efforts by the FVSU athletic department and the Fort Valley State University Foundation. There are scholarships available to both new and continuing student-athletes in all the varsity sports at Fort Valley State University. Inquire with coaches for more information. The renewal and/or cancellation of Athletic Scholarships is governed by NCAA Rules (See NCAA Manual Bylaw, Article 15).
