The University of Virginia Alumni Association administers more than 250 different scholarships ranging from modest stipends to full tuition, room and board. Many of these scholarships are available through an application process independent of the University’s financial aid process. Each year, these scholarships provide over $3 million in aid to more than 450 students across Grounds.
Important Tips & Guidelines
- Applications must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the date they are due and must be submitted through AwardSpring.*
- You must be enrolled full-time at UVA during the semester(s) in which the scholarship is paid. Money will not be retroactively applied to previous semesters.
- All scholarships will be divided over two semesters unless indicated. Anyone planning to graduate after one semester may only receive one semester of the award.
