UAA rewards strong academics and Alaska residency with multiple scholarship pathways.
Selection beyond grades and scores
These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
Look for the school's stated criteria and whether an additional application is needed.
Confirm the current admission and scholarship deadlines directly with the school.
Check renewal, credit requirements and how other aid affects the award.
The fine print / Three questions to carry forward
Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.
