Stackable with Other Scholarships
To allow recipients the opportunity to benefit from additional financial support, these Full, Half, and Quarter tuition Scholarships will be stackable up to full LDS tuition with the following scholarships available from BYU-Idaho:
- Merit Scholarship: A four-year award designed to recognize and reward exceptional high school academic achievement of incoming freshmen attending as campus students.
- Academic Scholarship: Designed to recognize and reward the exceptional academic achievement of continuing BYU-Idaho and Transfer students attending as campus students.
- The BYU-Idaho Scholarship: This need-based scholarship requires an application in addition to the coming year’s FAFSA to be completed by March 1.
The following scholarship can be stacked and awarded over full LDS tuition amounts.
- Returned Missionary Scholarship: A one-time $500 scholarship for students who have returned from full-time missionary service since Jan. 1, 2023, and are enrolling in their first college experience since their mission. Awards will be automatically added. No application is necessary.*
Example: Your cumulative BYU-Idaho 3.92 GPA qualifies you for a half LDS tuition award. You also receive a full talent scholarship. The combination of these two awards may not exceed full LDS tuition so you will receive a full LDS tuition scholarship.
