About This Scholarship

The University of Kentucky Bluegrass Spirit Awards is a scholarship program that recognizes and rewards incoming freshmen who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement, leadership skills, and a commitment to their community.

The Bluegrass Spirit Awards are granted based on a holistic review of the student’s academic record, extracurricular activities, community involvement, and personal statement. The award amount varies, but typically ranges from $2,500 to $10,000 per year and is renewable for up to four years, provided the student maintains good academic standing.

The Bluegrass Spirit Awards are highly competitive, and only a limited number of students are selected each year. The award recipients are notified in late January or early February, and they are invited to attend a special recognition event on campus.
