The UScellular™ Scholarship Program is designed to promote education and make financial assistance for education available to sons and daughters of UScellular™ associates. Our scholarship program is symbolic of our conviction that education is key to America’s future. We sincerely hope that these scholarships will be of lasting value to those students who receive them. We at UScellular™ are delighted to invest in the future of our work force.
This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Awards are granted without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin.

Awards may be renewed for up to three additional years or until a bachelor’s degree is earned, whichever occurs first. Renewal is contingent upon satisfactory academic performance in a full-time course of study, continued employment of the student’s parent at UScellular™, and continuation of the program by UScellular™.
