O'More College of Architecture & Design Scholarships

Belmont’s O’More College of Architecture & Design was originally founded in 1970 as O’More College, an independent institution in nearby Franklin, Tennessee. The college’s programs in fashion and interior design – five decades in the making - transferred to Belmont in 2018 and were joined by a new program in architecture, the first of its kind in Nashville. Today, the college represents three complementary curricula in related, yet distinct, disciplines that build on past traditions to serve the contemporary needs of culture, societies, institutions, and individuals. Like its history, O'More recognizes the importance of tradition and place while engaging in continual reinvention to serve a changing world. 

Each year, the college awards a number of scholarships to students majoring in one of its academic programs. These awards are renewable for four years provided the recipient maintains all required academic and citizenship expectations.

Shortly after starting your application to Belmont, you will receive an email with a link to submit scholarship material according to your respective program. Please refer to the specific blue tab below that corresponds with your intended major. Detailed scholarship requirements that apply to ALL subject areas will follow after.  Although the instructions for each are simple, their solutions require deep creative thought.  You are encouraged to use your personal creativity to arrive at a solution. There is no right or wrong answer; we are interested in your individual approach to the prompt and the way you choose to communicate the results of your creative thought process.
