Freshmen
The BYU Financial Aid and Scholarships Office wants students to be well informed concerning scholarship eligibility for the upcoming academic year. At the time of the student’s admission, his/her highest ACT/SAT composite score and unweighted GPA is applied to the freshman matrix to determine scholarship eligibility at that point in time. If additional test scores or transcripts are submitted previous to the scholarship deadline, scholarship eligibility may change.
Heritage Scholarship–8 Semesters of Full LDS Tuition
Students in this category may receive the National Merit Scholarship (8 Semesters of Full LDS Tuition) or the Presidential Scholarship (8 Semesters of 150% of LDS Tuition) rather than the Heritage Scholarship if they qualify. Keep in mind that generally students only qualify for one scholarship from the BYU Financial Aid and Scholarship Office.
Brigham Young Scholarship–2 Semesters of Full LDS tuition
Students are awarded beginning with the semester/term they are admitted through the next Winter Semester unless they are admitted beginning Winter semester. Students entering BYU beginning Winter semester are awarded through Summer term of the same academic year.
Brigham Young Scholarship–Half LDS tuition
Students are awarded beginning with the semester/term they are admitted through the next Winter Semester unless they are admitted beginning Winter semester. Students entering BYU beginning Winter semester are awarded through Summer term of the same academic year.
