An education at UAT is an investment, and we understand the amount of aid you receive may be a deciding factor in whether or not you attend. Therefore, UAT is committed to providing all our students with the information they need to finance their education.

Incoming UAT students have the opportunity to receive scholarships in the following categories: Thinking Scholarships, UAT-Online Scholarships, Mission-Driven Scholarships, and Financial Need Scholarships. Within each of these categories are a wide range of individual scholarships that reflect the many facets of the UAT community.

All scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so applicants are highly encouraged to apply early. Because these scholarships were designed to provide multiple avenues of financial assistance, applicants are also encouraged to apply for as many scholarships as are available.
