How to Apply for the Flinn Scholarship

The Flinn Scholarship application typically opens in August with a deadline in September or early October. The 2021 application is closed.

Twenty of Arizona’s highest-achieving high-school seniors are typically selected each year, joining a community of nearly 650 current Scholars and alumni.

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.

The benefits of the Flinn Scholarship go well beyond the financial package. Potential applicants are encouraged to learn more about BenefitsRequirementsStudy Abroad and Arizona’s Universities. In addition, application tips and FAQs are available on our website.
