Scholarships and Tuition Assistance

As a College of Business and Public Policy (CBPP) student, you can think of your scholarship opportunities in two buckets: competitive awards through CBPP, and scholarships available through the UA Foundation.

You may be eligible for scholarships in both areas, but the application process and deadlines are different.
