Medallion Award Scholarship Program
The Medallion Scholarship program is the ASU Alumni Association’s signature scholarship initiative. The Medallion Scholarship is more than a financial award; it is a comprehensive scholarship program that incorporates components of leadership, scholarship and service.

Medallion Scholars receive four-year, renewable scholarships of $2,750 annually, provided they actively participate in a mentorship program, contribute volunteer hours to the Alumni Association, maintain a satisfactory grade point average, and remain in good standing as an ASU undergraduate.

Eligibility is limited to recipients of ASU’s Dean's Scholarship, which is awarded to Arizona high school seniors based on academic performance. Medallion Scholars must demonstrate leadership, community service and extracurricular involvement. Recipients are chosen by the Alumni Association’s Medallion Scholarship Committee.

Reconstituted in 2006, the Medallion Award program was born out of the Alumni Association’s previous Medallion of Merit Scholarship. The original scholarship program traces its beginnings to the 1960s and provided merit-based financial assistance to thousands of students from across the state.

Financial support for the Alumni Association’s signature scholarship comes from individual donations and from a portion of license plate fees paid to the state of Arizona. Vehicle owners with a Sparky plate—ASU’s collegiate license plate, issued by the state Motor Vehicle Division—pay $25 annually for their plates. Seventeen dollars of this fee is given to the Alumni Association to support the Medallion Scholarship.

All eligible applicants will be notified directly by the ASU Alumni Association.
