About the Scholarships

1 Year Current Student Scholarships are awarded for one year and are based on availability of funds. Some of the funding is state-sponsored; however, many of these scholarships are funded through generous donations from our alumni, individuals, families, memorials, community members, businesses, and numerous organizations that support Utah Tech.

Students May Re-apply Each Year

1 Year Current Student Scholarships require students to be full-time at 12 credit hours per semester (15 credits preferred). GPA’s must remain above 3.30 in order to be eligible to apply for the next academic year.

Earned Credit Hour Limitations

A Student who has completed 150 credit hours, may be approved for one final year of scholarship, however, documentation from an academic advisor is required and is based on availability of funds. These students are put on a secondary list and only considered once all priority students have been awarded. Students with more than 180 earned credits or a Bachelors’ Degree are not eligible for scholarship consideration.

Reduced Credit Hour Requirements

Students who have no other classes to take prior to graduation can submit a Request for Part-time Scholarship Status for their scholarship. They must submit the form to the Scholarship Office prior to the start of school.
