Utah Residential Freshman Academic Scholarships
We are excited to highlight our dynamic new and improved Academic Scholarship programs.
Snow College is expanding in enrollment and achieving new heights with programs (i.e., Bachelors in Software Engineering, Bachelors in Music, A.F.A. in Visual Arts, CTE …) while still maintaining personal touches such as smaller class size and low student-teacher ratios. Snow College remains the most affordable higher education in Utah, while still keeping student class fees reasonable.
With this in mind, we have created new academic scholarship opportunities that complement our long standing tradition of scholarship awarding for all students pursuing a degree or certification (eligibilty requirement must be met with at least the outlined GPA and ACT/SAT scores).
