Did you know that each year, some scholarships go unused because students do not know that they could easily receive a CTE scholarship? The Career and Technical Education (CTE) Scholarships and Tuition Awards are for outstanding CTE students in Utah. The scholarships/awards are sponsored by the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) with funds provided by participating higher education institutions. The award amount varies by institution.
Note: Brigham Young University, University of Utah, and Utah State University do not participate.
There is no GPA requirement for this scholarship, and any senior in your programs could qualify and receive one of these scholarships to Utah schools. Many of them are full or partial tuition for one year. Please encourage your students to apply.
