Some notable programs include the Arizona Promise Grant, the Arizona Native Scholars Grant, Achievement Awards, the University Grant, Western Undergraduate Exchange, the Dorrance Scholarship Program, and One-Time Special Circumstance Funding. In addition to all of these programs, UArizona uses Scholarship Universe as a platform to connect students with both internal and external scholarships they are eligible for.
