- What you'll need
- No separate application: you are considered when you apply for admission
- An invitation to apply or compete
- Who can apply
- Strong academics, extracurricular involvement and leadership; enroll in at least 12 credits each semester. The page lists U.S. citizens/permanent residents and also describes the program as Dreamer friendly; the precise Dreamer exception requires clarification.
- Good to know
- Scholars contribute through leadership, research and service. Illinois Tech institutional scholarships do not stack. Camras supports bachelor’s tuition only; accelerated master’s coursework may use the original Heald award at the undergraduate rate. Combined MAP/Camras aid cannot exceed eligible tuition and mandatory fees. The current public page does not publish a numeric renewal GPA. Its citizen/PR wording also explicitly says Dreamer friendly without explaining that exception; confirm eligibility with Illinois Tech before relying on it.
