Financial Aid & Scholarships

Scholarships are considered “free money” meaning you do not have to repay them upon graduation.  There are many scholarships out there, offered by high schools, colleges, private donors, foundations, businesses, churches, non-profits, communities, employers, and professional organizations.  Some are based on merit, talent, and/or financial need.  Scholarships will have a separate application process that must be completed.

Scholarships are available for Native American students through various tribes.

• American Indian Services (AIS) Scholarship
• Tribal scholarships for NAU students
• The University Of Arizona Native American Funding
