Financial Information: Students who receive a scholarship, fellowship, or other financial aid administered by the University of Utah are required by state law to
certify that they are eligible to receive the scholarship as a U.S. citizen or a citizen of another country who is lawfully present in the U.S. If students do not know
whether they are in the U.S. lawfully, they should seek the advice of an immigration attorney before filing a scholarship/financial aid application. Prior to the
disbursement of any scholarship/financial aid, the University of Utah is required by law to verify the recipients citizenship status or lawful presence in the U.S. with
the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Once the University submits a students information to DHS for verification, this federal agency may have the legal right
to share the information with other government agencies. By signing this application, I certify under penalty of perjury that I am either a U.S. citizen or a citizen of
another country who is lawfully present within the U.S.
