Alumni Scholarship Program and Application Process

The Alumni Scholarship Program was initiated in 1967 by the Alumni Council.  The program is currently designed to reward high school seniors and transfer students for their academic and leadership achievements, to recognize current full-time undergraduate students for academic excellence and to attract children and grandchildren of active UA graduates to the Capstone.

The admission and scholarship application process is a consolidated, centralized, electronic procedure used campus-wide by all departments including the Alumni Scholarship Program.  The scholarship application process for each category of student is explained below.
