Applying for Scholarships
To apply for scholarships, incoming students must complete the Neumont University Application for Admission and provide any additional information noted in the description of each scholarship. Any required additional materials must be received, in their entirety, by the Scholarship Committee before the published deadline. For scholarship application deadlines, contact the Office of Admissions or visit www.neumont.edu/scholarships. Send all additional materials to scholarship@neumont.edu.
Students are encouraged to submit their Application for Admission and any supplemental materials promptly, since Neumont scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
There are four types of Neumont scholarships:
- Merit-based scholarships, are available to undergraduate and graduate students who have demonstrated superior academic performance in high school or college, as determined by the Neumont Scholarship Committee.
- Need-based scholarships, are available to undergraduate students with demonstrated financial need, as determined by the student’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC) derived from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
- Utah resident scholarships, are available to undergraduate students who meet specific Utah residency requirements.
- Matching scholarships, are available to undergraduate students who have been awarded a scholarship by another organization, such as a philanthropic organization or foundation.
All Neumont scholarships are governed by the following rules:
- Scholarships are only available to full-time students making normal progress. Normal progress is defined as ten continuous quarters from the first date of attendance through graduation (twelve quarters for students enrolled in the BSGD program). Any student who drops below full-time status may forfeit his or her scholarship. Exceptions may be considered for students with unexpected family or health events, or students withdrawing or deferring enrollment for full-time humanitarian, community, military, or religious service.
- Any changes to the Enrollment Agreement between the student and Neumont University may result in the loss of a scholarship award. However, students who transfer from the BSCS program to the BSTM, BSIS, BSWD, or BSGD programs will maintain their award at the time of enrollment until the end of the standard degree program duration (10 quarters for the BSCS, BSIS, BSTM, and BSWD programs, or 12 quarters for the BSGD program).
- Scholarship awards expire at the end of the standard degree program duration. The clock for the standard enrollment period beings on a student’s first day of class and expires at the conclusion of the 10th quarter for BSCS, BSIS, BSTM, and BSWD programs, and the 12th quarter for the BSGD program.
- Any changes to the Enrollment Agreement between the student and the University may result in the loss of a scholarship.
- The total dollars available to be applied to a student’s account may not exceed, on a cumulative basis, more than 100% of charges for tuition. Scholarship awards to any student, for any quarter, are limited to the total amount of tuition due that quarter.
- Scholarships are awarded at the time of enrollment only. All decisions of the Scholarship Committee are final.
- Scholarships are subject to cancellation on delinquent accounts.
In addition to scholarship specific requirements, all scholarships are subject to forfeiture for:
- Poor academic performance
- Judicial infractions, including academic misconduct
- Delinquent student accounts
- Withdrawal from continuous enrollment
- Failure to meet cumulative Grade Point Average (cGPA) requirements
