JOURNALISM STUDENTS : FINANCIAL AID

The journalism department presents scholarships to about 50 students each year. Only Journalism majors who have completed at least two journalism courses are eligible. Students apply for the scholarships in March for funds that are applicable for tuition in any following semester.

Some of the scholarships awarded by the department are based on financial need, others on academic performance. They include the Journalism Honors Scholarship, the Bernice Cosulich Scholarship, the Jon Ruby Scholarship, and the Edith Auslander Scholarship.

The University of Arizona Office of Student Financial Aid has a number of resources of interest to students such as eligibility requirements, application tips, loan counseling, tax information, and related deadlines for various financial aid applications.
