Scholarships

The DRC sponsors a small competitive scholarship program each year. Students applying for scholarships must be admitted to Utah State University, have a minimum GPA of 2.4, and be registered for classes at USU. Students may not be attending another institution while receiving the scholarship from the DRC. Scholarship competitions will be announced through the DRC Newsletter, this website, and flyers posted in the DRC office. If you have further questions about scholarships, please contact Natalie Hansen, Assistant Director, at the DRC, at (435) 797-3434.
