Utah State University recently made changes to two non-resident scholarships that could make it more affordable for your children or grandchildren to become Aggies, too.
Thanks to new legislation from the State of Utah, USU has
been able to make changes to the Nonresident Waiver and Legacy Waiver
scholarships that may benefit you and your family.
Here are those changes, and what they mean for you.
Nonresident Waiver
The qualifications for the Nonresident Waiver have been
expanded. Now out-of-state students with an index score of 113 or greater (see what this
means) will be automatically considered for this scholarship, when they
apply for admission to Utah State. This award will waive the entire portion of
nonresident tuition for one year, saving them approximately $12,000.
And it gets even better. While on the scholarship, your
student can earn Utah residency, which only takes one year, meaning they’ll pay
the in-state rate for the remainder of their time at USU.
Legacy Waiver
In the past the Legacy Waiver has helped children of graduated Aggies, who live
outside Utah, attend USU for the same cost as in-state students. The Legacy
Waiver is now available to both children
and grandchildren of Aggie graduates. Students on this
scholarship do not need to gain residency. The waiver saves them roughly
$12,000 per year and applies to their entire tenure at Utah State.
Both of these scholarships are still available for the Fall
2013 semester by applying for admission.
For more information on how to help your children and grandchildren
become Aggies and continue the legacy, contact the Admissions Office at
