One of the most essential and gratifying roles of being a graduate is supporting scholarships to UNLV students. With state and federal aid able to accommodate only a portion of our growing population, the association prides itself on the fact that the organization has provided millions in scholarship support in its short history.

Alumni scholarships have minimum academic requirements for consideration and to maintain eligibility. Alumni scholarships are not guaranteed to all that apply. Determination of final awards is made by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships.
