Colorado Cybersecurity Scholarship
The Colorado Cybersecurity Scholarship is awarded to new and continuing students who currently live in Colorado or who are residents of Colorado who are pursuing cybersecurity through academic or professional activities at UCCS. The scholarship gives preference to sophomore and above students who are pursuing a related certificate, undergraduate, or graduate degree. However, students with related minors or a budding interest in cybersecurity may also be considered for funding based on the scholarship application indicating concentration in cybersecurity activities (internship, research, certifications, etc.).
Award amounts vary and students must reapply for funding each year (previous awards are not automatic awards for subsequent years).
Eligible students will be notified in June or July.
