Note the different deadlines for each scholarship.

The Mayborn School of Journalism recognizes that many students need financial assistance to complete their higher education. Below you will find a list of scholarships available to Mayborn students. More than $40,000 in scholarships will be distributed this spring by the Mayborn School of Journalism. Undergraduate and graduate students may apply. However, please read the scholarship descriptions below to determine the scholarships for which you are eligible. 

To apply for journalism scholarships, you must fill out the General Scholarship Application. To apply for the Mayborn Graduate Scholarships ($10,000 each) and the Dave T. Lane/Belo Corporation Scholarship, follow the links below for a separate application.

General eligibility: Undergraduate students who will be enrolled 12 hours or more in the fall semester and graduate students who will be enrolled for 9 hours or more. The only exception is for students who are employed full-time and attend graduate school part-time. Students may apply for all scholarships for which they are eligible, but only one scholarship is awarded per person. Not every applicant is guaranteed a scholarship.

In addition to these scholarships offered through the Mayborn School of Journalism, the UNT Student Financial Aid and Scholarships office annually awards more than $300 million in financial aid, including more than $25 million in scholarships. About 72 percent of UNT students receive financial aid and scholarships. In fact, nearly all students who complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) can receive federal or state assistance.
