Black Alumni Association Scholarship

The Black Alumni Association Scholarship is awarded to incoming first-year, returning and new transfer undergraduate students who have a connection to the Black/African American community through activities and/or community service. As an Alumni Association, we are already welcoming new Forever Buffs into the community before students even step on campus. This scholarship supports students during their journey as Buffs and builds an early connection between them and the Alumni Association.

To be eligible for consideration, applicants must:

  • Complete the CU Boulder General Scholarship Application
  • Be a first-year, returning undergraduate or new transfer degree-seeking student, enrolled full-time at CU Boulder.
  • Have minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA.
  • Have a connection to the Black/African American community.

This Scholarship is awarded for one academic year. Recipients are also encouraged to submit a Post-Acceptance bio and thank you letter to donors and supporters of the scholarship.
