intended degree

Explanation:
That would be the normal term in educational circles, in which I moved for many years. "Degree sought" is also a possibility.

Degree aspiration

Explanation:
I think that, in the context of a college scholarship application form, it probably means the degree the applicant wants to obtain (or aspires to).

To keep the same construction it could also be translated to "Aspired degree".

Example sentence(s):

Though both groups have similar degree aspiration trajectories, students who attend private two-year colleges are more likely to aspire to higher degree beyond the bachelor’s than their counterparts at public two year colleges.

Another possibility is state-approved degree but this is usually used for the programme rather than the degree

ah yes, I see Isabelle's reasoning ... jumped in at the deep end, it's true, without enough context.
In effect, it could also mean the degree programme the student is applying for in which case I would think: "Title of degree programme" or "Title of degree program" for the US would be more appropriate
