UNT Alumni Association Scholarship Program
Each year the UNT Alumni Association awards deserving students scholarship support through contributions made by generous alumni. Scholarship amounts vary each semester.
Students may apply for these scholarships through the Eagle Scholarship Portal. Applications open on October 15, 2024 and close on February 15, 2025.
General Scholarship Eligibility Requirements
- Awardees for all UNT Alumni Association scholarships must meet the minimum entrance and continuing academic performance standards of the scholarship committee in effect at the time of any award.
- Applicants must maintain full-time enrollment in an applicable degree-granting program at the university, unless they have fewer than twice the number of semester hours required to be a full-time student remaining in their degree program.
- Scholarship awardees must maintain a 3.0 GPA during all semesters during which they are receiving the scholarship. Students unable to meet enrollment requirements due to mitigating circumstances should reach out to the UNT Alumni Association to request a scholarship appeal.
Completed scholarship appeals will be reviewed by a scholarship committee, and notification regarding the appeal outcome will be provided through the student’s assigned UNT EagleConnect email address.
All UNT Alumni Association scholarships may continue to be awarded to previous recipients on an annual basis in successive years if the recipient continues to meet the eligibility requirements outlined.
Many UNT Alumni Association scholarships have specific criteria for award eligibility. Please visit the scholarship application portal to learn more.
