Outside Scholarships
Students are encouraged to search for outside funding for their education. Any student who receives additional funds from any source, such as an outside scholarship, before or after receiving financial aid from the University, must report the source and the value of the award to the Financial Aid Office. Additional funds could require an adjustment or cancellation to a portion of the existing financial aid award to avoid an “overaward” as defined by federal and state regulations. Examples of scholarship searches include, but are not limited to:
- studentaid.gov/understand-aid/types/scholarships
- fastweb.com
- finaid.org/scholarships
- scholarshipamerica.org

Please beware of sites that ask for payment for scholarship information and/or applications and review all information carefully before applying.
Private Loan
Before considering a private education loan, students are recommended to first apply for available federal student financial aid (Title IV) to ensure any eligible federal grant aid is utilized and/or any eligible federal low interest loans available are considered. If a student wishes to apply for a private education loan, the University of Arizona Global Campus will work with any lender participating in a private student loan program from which a student wishes to borrow. If a student obtains a loan to pay for an education program, the student will have the responsibility to repay the full amount of the loan plus interest. Please contact the Financial Aid Office for additional information about all available education funding options.
