The University of Connecticut Academic Excellence Scholarship is available to in-state and out-of-state applicants from all campuses. To be eligible, students must have achieved a very competitive high school academic average. Submission of standardized test scores is not required for scholarship consideration. If an applicant chooses to send SATs or ACTs, please know that those scores must be competitive in consideration of the profile for the admitted class. Priority consideration will be given to those who complete the application by December 1. Students may visit the scholarship's website or contact the Office of Student Financial Aid Services for more information.
