The UC National Outreach Award is a scholarship program recognizing the academic merit of students coming to the University of Cincinnati from designated states. Qualifying students who enroll directly from a high school within the targeted states into a baccalaureate degree program are eligible for a renewable annual award to reduce out-of-state tuition costs. The targeted geographic areas for the UC National Outreach Award are incoming freshmen residents of the following states: California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Students residing in one of these states who meet the December 1 application deadline will automatically be reviewed for possible awarding. Qualifying incoming freshmen must have a 3.85 weighted or 3.5 unweighted high school GPA at the time of application submission. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
