Did you know
that by taking a Concurrent Enrollment
course,
you may be eligible for 40% off college
tuition?
The
New Century Scholarship Program was
created to provide scholarship opportunities
to Utah students who complete their
associate degree by September 1 of the year
they graduate high school.
Scholarship awards can equal 40% of an
eligible student's tuition cost for up to
two years (60 credit hours) at any of Utah's
state operated institutions of higher
education offering baccalaureate programs.
The scholarship will be canceled if a
student fails to maintain a "B" average for
any two consecutive semesters after
receiving the scholarship.
Achieving this remarkable accomplishment
will most likely require that you use a
combination of the early credit options
listed above. Discuss you options with
your high school counselor and a
college advisor. Other scholarship
opportunities are also available.
