U of L Cardinal Commitment Grant

 

Greetings from the University of Louisville, 

The University of Louisville is excited to offer the Cardinal Commitment Grant, an opportunity for Kentucky students to receive a last-dollar scholarship*, covering tuition until the student's first bachelor’s degree is earned, to UofL. 

We are proud to offer this grant to Kentucky students who file the 22-23 FAFSA, are Pell Grant eligible, and have demonstrated success in the classroom. Students must be a Kentucky resident and have at least a 3.25 cumulative weighted GPA. This award will be offered to first-year students planning to enroll full-time at UofL in fall 2022.

To be considered for the Cardinal Commitment Grant, students must complete the following:

  • Apply to the University of Louisville by March 1. No essays or letters of recommendation are required and ACT/SAT score submission is optional. 

  • No application fee for students on free and reduced lunch.

  • Submit all required materials, including an official high school transcript, by March 7. Students who have already applied can view any missing materials using their Application Gateway.
  • File the 22-23 FAFSA by March 7.

Students who are currently admitted and have already filed the 22-23 FAFSA will be considered for the Cardinal Commitment Grant and notified if they are eligible.

Our admissions counselors are offering extended hours for counseling appointments to make sure your students have access to the help they need to take advantage of this opportunity. Find your UofL Admissions Counselor.
