Udall Undergraduate Scholarship

The Udall Undergraduate Scholarship, administered by the Udall Foundation, is designed for college students who plan to become future leaders in environmental, Tribal public policy, or Native American health care fields. This highly competitive program recognizes undergraduates who are dedicated to issues related to Native American nations or the stewardship of public lands and natural resources. To apply, students must first participate in an internal selection process at their own colleges or universities before their applications can be nominated to the Udall Foundation for final consideration. Because this is a merit-based national competition rather than a need-based aid program, it does not require a FAFSA submission to determine eligibility, though students should consult their institutional financial aid offices regarding how the funding integrates with their overall aid packages. Recipients of this award receive $7,500 each to help cover their educational expenses. For current deadlines and application dates, applicants should see the official page for current dates.
