Undergraduate Diversity Scholarships

Welcome to the University of Utah Office of Scholarships and Grants in the Office for Student Equity and Diversity. This website is intended to provide user-friendly access to scholarships at the University of Utah and other scholarships that we are able to list. This list is intended for students that are or will be attending the University of Utah. This is NOT a list of ALL scholarships. This site is most useful as a guide. We DO NOT recommend that anyone pay for scholarship search services. If you would like to arrange a meeting with Feleti to discuss scholarships more, please feel free to arrange an appointment with him. |

Students who receive a scholarship, fellowship, or other financial aid administered by the University of Utah are required by state law to certify that they are eligible to receive the scholarship as a U.S. citizen or a citizen of another country who is lawfully present in the U.S. If students do not know whether they are in the U.S. lawfully, they should seek the advice of an immigration attorney before filing a scholarship/financial aid application.
Prior to the disbursement of any scholarship/financial aid, the University of Utah is required by law to verify the recipient’s citizenship status or lawful presence in the U.S. with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Once the University submits a student’s information to DHS for verification, this federal agency may have the legal right to share the information with other government agencies.
