Scholarships
Granite School District’s live scholarship database can be found here (Google Spreadsheet) .
This page will be updated frequently with information throughout the year, so check back regularly.
FAFSA
The FAFSA is a form you fill out every year to see if you are eligible for college tuition aid from the federal government. This form determines your eligibility for the Pell Grant (don’t need to pay back), Loans (need to pay back), or Work Study (working on or off campus to help cover college costs).
There are also several scholarships that require a FAFSA form to be completed in order to be eligible for the scholarship, such as USHE’s Opportunity Scholarship. Some schools also cover remaining tuition costs after the Pell Grant’s amount has been applied.
For more information on how to apply for the FAFSA, check out our Financial Aid page.
Loans
You can get loans through the FAFSA, through your college/university, or through a bank/credit union:
- FAFSA Loan information can be found here. Subsidized loans do not accrue until you graduate or you drop below half-time enrollment and are typically the best financial option.
- Not all colleges provide loans or payment plans, so call your college’s Financial Aid office to get more information.
- Contact your personal bank or credit union for information on how to take out a student loan.
