About this scholarship

This is a need-based scholarship from Brigham Young University-Idaho for students who demonstrate financial need through the FAFSA. Awards are set in tiers depending on enrollment level, ranging from $309 to $2,472 per semester, and are meant to help offset tuition costs. There's no separate application—awards are given from available institutional funds, with priority going to students who complete the FAFSA by March 1, and eligibility continues as long as need is demonstrated and funding remains available.
