University of Utah Unveils New Full-Tuition Scholarship for Families with Under $100,000 Income
The Utah Promise guarantees full tuition and fees for eligible Utah residents with household incomes under $100,000, aiming to boost college access and completion rates.
- On Tuesday morning, the University of Utah announced Utah Promise, a tuition-guarantee program starting in the fall of next year to cover full tuition and fees for qualifying Utah resident undergraduate students.
- Built on existing programs, Utah Promise leverages public and private donors to eliminate tuition costs and expand access, especially for first-generation students and middle- and working-class families, university officials said.
- Applicants must be first-time, first-year Utah residents with a 3.5 GPA, apply by Dec. 1, and complete the FAFSA by Feb. 1.
- University officials said the program could support hundreds of incoming students starting fall 2026 and help students from Utah's lowest-income families access free education through scholarships and grants.
- Following earlier scholarship programs, Utah Promise builds on the Credit for Prior Learning and Service program and For Utah Scholarship to aid families under $70,300 and working-class families.
