Alumni Scholarship Programs

As a way of thanking our alumni and encouraging the growth of Alliant International University, the University is offering scholarships to encourage sons, daughters and friends of our alumni to attend Alliant International University. Both international and domestic students are eligible. The scholars and professionals of the 21st century will need international perspective and cultural competence that an education at Alliant can deliver because of its diversified students, faculty, and locations.

Since this program began, we have already awarded 200 of these scholarships. You can learn about some of the happy student recipients of these awards here.

Two types of scholarships are offered and described below:

Alumni Referral Scholarship Fund

The Alliant International University Alumni Referral Scholarship is an annual tuition grant of $1,000 that can run as long as four years.

The alum’s recommendation must be submitted as part of the admissions application, and must be received prior to an offer of admission. (A student who is admitted without a recommendation will not be eligible for the scholarship.)

The scholarship will be offered beginning with the fall semester of 2007. It will run through the spring semester of 2010 and can be extended with approval from the Alliant President. Students enrolled in half-time studies may receive a $500 annual scholarship.
