Scholarships at University of North Florida

• Dr. Mauricio Gonzalez International Student Scholarship

  Official page

  A scholarship administered through UNF's Student Government for currently enrolled international students who are non-US citizens. Applicants must hold a minimum 3.0 UNF GPA, have completed at least one prior semester of enrollment, and be registered for a minimum of six credit hours per semester. Eligibility is explicitly limited to non-US citizen international students, making it directly applicable to international undergraduates enrolled at UNF.

• International Student Admissions (ISA) Scholarship

  Official page

  A competitive, renewable award for newly admitted international undergraduate (and graduate) students at UNF holding F-1 or J-1 visa status. It provides up to $12,000 worth of out-of-state tuition waivers per academic year, covering only the out-of-state portion of tuition rather than a cash payment. Selection is based on academic record, area of specialization, a personal statement, and a letter of recommendation. It is open specifically to international students because eligibility explicitly requires F-1/J-1 visa status and first-time admission to UNF as an international applicant.

• Non-Florida Resident Merit-Based Waivers (Freshmen)

  Official page

  Automatic, merit-based out-of-state tuition waivers for incoming freshmen who are non-Florida residents, which includes international undergraduate applicants. Three tiers are offered based on GPA and standardized test scores: First Coast ($14,000 waiver; 3.9 GPA, 1300 SAT/28 ACT/92 CLT), Atlantic ($10,000 waiver; 3.7 GPA, 1230 SAT/26 ACT/86 CLT), and Sunshine ($6,000 waiver; 3.5 GPA, 1160 SAT/24 ACT/79 CLT). These waivers apply to any newly admitted freshman classified as a non-Florida resident for tuition purposes, which covers international students on F-1/J-1 status.

• Non-Florida Tuition Waiver

  Official page

  A tuition waiver for F-1 international undergraduate students in good standing who have completed at least one full academic year (fall and spring) of full-time coursework at UNF. It waives a portion or all of a student's out-of-state tuition and fees, with selection based on academic performance and expected graduation date; students must reapply each term. This waiver is designed for and restricted to F-1 international students who by definition pay out-of-state tuition, making it explicitly available to international undergraduates.

• Sir Colville Young Scholarship

  Official page

  A competitive scholarship open to both undergraduate and graduate students who are citizens of Belize studying any major at UNF. Applications are reviewed each spring through the College of Education and Human Services. Because eligibility is explicitly defined by Belizean citizenship rather than US citizenship or Florida residency, this award is open to international undergraduate students from Belize.
