Where Southern University and A & M College lists its scholarships

Southern University System Foundation unified scholarship application (foundation.sus.edu/apply-for-scholarships/) — a single application (resume, up to 3 recommendation letters, transcript/grades, and a 500-word essay) matches students to ~100+ named endowed and non-endowed funds across the SU System, including dozens administered by specific SUBR colleges/departments (College of Business, College of Engineering, College of Education, Department of Chemistry, Department of Computer Science, etc.). SUBR's own Office of Student Financial Aid separately operates a ScholarshipUniverse portal (subr.scholarshipuniverse.com) described as 'a clearinghouse for scholarships awarded by various academic departments and third party outside agencies,' but its individual award listings are gated behind student login and were not reachable unauthenticated.
