The Flinn Scholars Program will host five information sessions this spring—including in Yuma for the first time in several years—to present the benefits of one of the most prestigious merit-based scholarships in the nation and share strategies to build the strongest application.
Who Should Attend
The information presented will be valuable for high-school sophomores and juniors. Parents and guardians are welcome to attend.
These sessions are strongly encouraged, but attendance is not required in order to apply for the Flinn Scholarship.
Beyond the in-person sessions, the Flinn Scholars Program offers an online information session.
Who Will Present
Along with Flinn Scholars Program representatives and current Flinn Scholars, attendees at the sessions will hear from Honors-college and admissions staff from Arizona’s public universities.

Flinn Scholarship Benefits
The
merit-based scholarship program covers the cost of tuition, fees, housing, and
meals at Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, or the
University of Arizona. In addition, Flinn Scholars participate in a three-week international
seminar after their freshman year and at least one additional study-abroad
experience.
The overall financial package is valued at more than $120,000.
How to Learn More
The benefits of the Flinn Scholarship go well beyond the financial package. Potential applicants are encouraged to learn more about Benefits, Requirements, Study Abroad and Arizona’s Universities. In addition, application tips and FAQs are available on our website.
