Current and returning students are not eligible for the Alumni Referral Award.

There are no deadlines for submitting a student referral. However, to be considered for a student referral, a student must not have applied or inquired to UIU within the last twelve months.

Yes, the Alumni Referral Award includes students pursuing any of UIU’s six master’s degrees. However, students who already received a UIU degree are not eligible for the Alumni Referral Award.

The Alumni Referral Award, in conjunction with other state, federal, and other institutional aid, may not exceed the cost of tuition. The student’s award package may be adjusted based on federal, state and other institutional aid available.

The Legacy Scholarship is available to dependents of previous graduates of Upper Iowa University.  Students must be enrolled full-time to qualify.  This grant will apply to children including adopted or legal step-children and will not exclude those children who are independent of the family due to marriage or age.  

If you are a parent (and UIU alum!) be certain to inquire about the Legacy Scholarship with your student’s UIU Admissions Counselor.

This particular award is for NEW student inquiries. If a student has already submitted a formal inquiry with UIU Admissions, been on a campus tour, or made a deposit to enroll, they are not eligible for this award.

While UIU employees are highly encouraged to refer students to UIU to pursue a degree, they are not eligible to complete a referral scholarship form.
