Scholarships

The Equity and Diversity Unit has established a Diversity Scholarship Committee to distribute the majority of diversity scholarships for the University of Idaho.

The Diversity Scholars Program provides academic, cultural, social assistance to recipients of any of the diversity scholarships, focusing on our first-year multicultural students and returning undergraduates. We partner with many programs and services across campus to give our students a good foundation of university support services, planning workshops and socials to connect them to campus life.

Only United States citizens and permanent residents are eligible for diversity scholarships. If you are an international student, contact the International Programs Office at 208-885-8984.
