The cost of college shouldn\u2019t keep the best students from entering the multibillion-dollar textile industry. It\u2019s that firm belief that first drove a group of alumni to establish merit-based scholarships at the Wilson College of Textiles in 1971. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continued dedication to that ideal has enabled the Wilson College of Textiles to award more than $1.3 million in scholarships to more than 130 scholars in the 2024-2025 academic year. Through the generosity of the North Carolina Textile Foundation, we\u2019re able to offer scholarships and dedicated support to both incoming first-year students and transfer students. <\/p>\n\n\n

First-year scholarships<\/h2>\n

We award more than a dozen merit-based and need-based scholarships to our incoming first-year students each year so they can focus more on learning (and exploring) during their time at NC State. <\/p>\n \n

Receiving a Textiles scholarship means more than just financial aid. Students who receive a Centennial Scholarship or Textile Pioneer Scholarship also participate in specialized programming and have access to enrichment grants that they can apply to study abroad and career development opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They form lifelong friendships with their fellow scholars. And they access a network of alumni scholars pushing the industry forward from Nike, Abercrombie & Fitch, and their own successful startups. <\/p>\n\n\n
