Financial Aid & Scholarships
Some basic information about financial aid is provided below. If you are a current student-athlete and require additional information concerning athletic scholarships, please contact the University of Utah Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships at (801) 581-6211 or visit http://www.financialaid.utah.edu/.
Please be aware that outside scholarships (aid from any source other than athletics) can impact individual and team financial aid limitations. Student-athletes must check with their head coach and/or the Compliance Office before accepting any outside financial aid.
Terms & Conditions of Athletically-Related Aid
All student-athletes (freshmen and transfers) on athletics aid/scholarship receive their scholarship for one year or a period not to exceed their five-year period of eligibility. However, the Athletics Department reserves the right to award aid on a semester-by-semester basis (except for student-athletes in their first year following the signing of a National Letter of Intent). Each academic year, student-athletes must sign a receipt acknowledging acceptance of their athletics aid.
Renewals/Reductions/Cancellations of Athletics Aid
The renewal of institutional financial aid must be made on or before July 1 prior to the academic year in which the aid will be distributed. Student-athletes receiving an athletics scholarship during the previous year will be notified as to whether their aid has been renewed, increased, reduced, or canceled. At the end of the period of the award, aid may be renewed, increased, reduced, or canceled at the discretion of the institution. Athletics scholarships may be reduced or canceled during the period of the award if a student-athlete:
- Renders himself or herself ineligible for intercollegiate competition in any manner, including failure to meet academic eligibility requirements or loss of amateur status (e.g., signing with an agent).
- Voluntarily quits the team.
- Fraudulently misrepresents any information on an application, letter of intent, or financial aid agreement.
- Engages in serious misconduct.
- Effective October 15, 2018: Provides written notification of transfer to the institution.Â
Athletics scholarships may not be reduced or canceled during the period of the award on the basis of:
- A student-athlete's athletics ability, performance, or contribution to a team's success.
- An injury that prevents the student-athlete from participating in intercollegiate athletics.
- Any other athletics reason.
If a student-athlete's scholarship is canceled, reduced, or not renewed for any reason, the student-athlete has the right to appeal this decision to the Director of Financial Aid & Scholarships within 14 business days.
Summer School Athletics Aid
Student-athletes receiving athletics scholarships during the regular academic year are eligible to apply for summer school aid. Those wishing to receive athletics aid for summer school must apply through their Athletics Academic Advisor during Spring Semester. A committee comprised of Academic Services staff will consider the application for approval. If you have any questions, visit your Athletics Academic Advisor.
