Greenlight Scholarship

Students at UVU who require financial assistance to further their studies are eligible for the Greenlight Scholarship.

For students who get the Pell Grant but may still owe more tuition, this grant plugs the gap to finance it.

Scholarship Award

Up to 60 credit hours of tuition, UVU will pay the difference between a first-year or second-year student’s Pell Grant and the cost of tuition.

This just covers tuition; regular student fees and course expenses are not included. This money includes a waiver that cannot be coupled with any other waivers.
