- Tuition Scholarship for four years (eight semesters)
- $1,000 per year supplemental scholarship for four years (eight semesters)
- First year of undergraduate on-campus housing at regular room rate* (based on

National Recognition Scholarship Eligibility
To be considered for the National Recognition Scholarship at UA, students must be recognized by the College Board National Recognition Program. The College Board National Recognition Program is a third-party organization that create pathways to college for underrepresented students by awarding them academic honors and connecting them with universities across the country. Please review the College Board National Recognition Programs webpage for the eligibility requirements of this program.
*Regular room rate is defined as the largest room option in a particular dorm. Example: Riverside, Lakeside and Ridgecrest have four-person suites. The cost associated with the four-person suite would be the value of the housing scholarship in this circumstance. If you live in an alternative dorm where double room occupancy is the largest available option, then the cost associated with the double room would be the value of the housing scholarship.
