ASUU Spring 2025 Student Scholarship

The ASUU Scholarship is a $1,000 award given to 10 students to help alleviate financial barriers that might prevent them from fully engaging in campus life at the University of Utah. The scholarship is designed to support basic needs, including tuition, textbooks, commuting, housing, and food, ensuring students can focus on their education and personal growth.
