The Morton-Finney Scholars Award recognizes incoming Butler University freshmen who combine strong academic rigor and performance with a demonstrated commitment to fostering inclusion through their high school and community activities. Awards range from $5,000 up to full tuition when combined with other Butler gift aid, state, and federal assistance. Beyond the Common App, applicants complete a separate Morton-Finney Scholars Award application, and recipients join a cohort with ongoing community engagement, meeting attendance, and monthly journal-reflection requirements to renew the award each year.
