Scholarship Details

Scholarships at UNLV and in the college can either be a one-year or multi-year award. Students who are awarded a scholarship will be notified by the appropriate unit with the details of the scholarship. The College of Hospitality tries to send out all awards no later than March 1. Scholarships can also be stackable, meaning a student could hold both a UNLV and college-level scholarship.

It is CRITICAL that students also complete the FAFSA or Alternate Need form as many scholarships require this to be eligible. If you are awarded a multi-year scholarship, please note that you must submit these forms (FAFSA or Alternate Need form) each year be the deadline set by the UNLV Office of Financial Aid. Failure to do so may result in the loss of your scholarship.
