ieiMedia funding

We have several funding opportunities, from multiple early commitment scholarships to targeted grants for students at specific universities and programs.

Early commitment scholarships

These awards cannot be combined; each student may receive only one; eligibility is based on the date the payments are received, not when a student applied.

First-to-commit scholarship

The first five students to pay both the enrollment deposit ($500) and the first program payment ($2000) by Nov. 1 will receive a $500 scholarship in the form of a deduction on their last payment.

Early commitment scholarship

All students who pay both the enrollment deposit ($500) and the first program payment ($2000) by Nov. 15 will receive a $200 scholarship in the form of a deduction on their last payment.

First-to-commit scholarship (need-based)

The first five Pell Grant students to pay both the enrollment deposit ($500) and the first program payment ($2000) by Dec. 1 will receive a $500 scholarship in the form of a deduction on their last payment. (Pell Grant status must be verified.)
