Student Scholarships

 

As the cost of education rises, scholarships continue to be vitally important to making the University of Arizona experience accessible to students from diverse backgrounds. 

 

Whether you support need-based, merit-based, or a college-specific scholarship, your giving makes an Arizona education more accessible and helps us recruit and retain our highest achieving students. 

 

Here are some of the student scholarships you can support: 

 

Arizona Undergraduate Scholarship Fund

This fund supports students in good standing and is vital to the University’s vision to promote realization of human potential and the removal of economic barriers to higher education. Each scholarship goes to a student recipient throughout their Wildcat journey if they remain in good academic standing; this means they are free to explore any discipline of study and to change majors without economic hardship.

 

Arizona Assurance Scholarships

Increases the number of low-income Arizona residents attending and graduating from the University of Arizona, providing financial aid and support services to retain and graduate students.

 

President's Directed Scholarship Fund

Supports students who are currently in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

 

SALT Center Endowed Scholarship

Support students participating in the SALT Center who do not have the means to pay for SALT fees.

 

Athletics - Wildcat Scholarship Fund

The official scholarship fund of Arizona Athletics that was established to support Arizona’s 21 individual sports that helps provide room, board, books, fees and meals for 500+ student-athletes.

 

Cultural Centers Scholarships

These centers create community and provide programming for marginalized students across campus. Various cultural centers on campus include African American Student Affairs, Asian Pacific American Student Affairs, Adalberto and Ana Guerrero Student Center, Disability Resource Center, Immigrant Student Resource Center, LGBTQ Affairs, Native American Student Affairs and the Women and Gender Resource Center.
