SCHOLARSHIPS AND STUDENT FEES

FUND YOUR EDUCATION

We encourage all students to create a apply for scholarships through the centralized UA scholarship application system, Scholarship Universe. Scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis using a range of criteria such as academic achievement and financial need, which means there are scholarship opportunities for just about everyone!

The College of Agriculture, Life and Environmental Sciences (CALES) has more than $700,000 in scholarships to award to our students alone. Applications for these scholarships are open January-April and there are many others available through the University during the year.

All students are eligible to apply for federal aid by submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Contact the Financial Aid Office for more information. Dietetics majors who are members of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics can apply for scholarships and other financial aid offered through the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Foundation.
