Utah?
Does anyone know anything about Utah's Byrd Scholarship? I am really stressing about this because this will probably be the only scholarship i would get. I have a 32 and a 3.996 but there are people with higher ACT and GPA than me in my school. But we didn't do the nominating thing for our school so I'm wondering what's going to happen. STRESS!

Luck you dottified!

Here's information for Utah.

Early College

Looks like you have to submit an application. It says that Utah is still waiting for grant funds and hasn't notified anyone yet.

I had a long discussion this morning about OH Byrd scholarships with the state administrator. I was told that the state did not yet know exactly how much money it was getting so they could not release the new awards. The process involves figuring out how much money the state will need to support the current folks with their awards and then the remaining money will be assigned to the new recipients. Since this is the largest graduating class ever, it would not be surprising if fewer recipients receive the awards.

Texas usually sends out letters in early June. Only recipients are notified.

Lots of states are awaiting Dept of Education funding before they can proceed. Not sure why if this is an annual program?
