Alumni Freshman Scholarships Information
Most Association-level scholarships are designated for incoming freshmen and are merit based. Students must be fully admitted without conditions before accepting alumni scholarships. Scholarship availability depends on several factors and can vary from year to year.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to help the greatest number of UofA students, alumni scholarships are generally awarded to students receiving less than $8,000 per year from other single-source, renewable scholarships (excluding non-resident tuition waivers for out-of-state students)
