Herriman Scholarship

The Herriman Scholarship, funded by the Dell Loy and Julie Hansen Scholars Foundation, provides tuition and basic student fee assistance to eligible Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) students who take courses at the Herriman Campus.

The Herriman Scholarship was established to help students connected to the Herriman, Bluffdale, and Riverton communities attend SLCC's Herriman Campus. The scholarship is available to eligible undergraduate and SLTech students.

The scholarship is generally available for Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. Eligibility is reviewed each semester before and after the semester drop date.

What does the Herriman Scholarship cover?

The Herriman Scholarship covers eligible resident tuition and basic student fees for students enrolled in 6 to 18 credit hours. The scholarship is non-refundable, meaning it cannot result in a refund to the student. Award amounts may be reduced based on enrollment and eligible tuition and basic fee charges. Students should always refer to their scholarship Acceptance Criteria for the most up-to-date information about their award and what expenses are covered.
