Finding the money
Even with our low tuition, everyone can use help paying for college, so there are grants, student jobs, work-study and loans. UAF also has hundreds of privately funded scholarships, and our Nanook Pledge and Commitment scholarships can offer four-year certainty.
We’re a top university
We’ve got our own rocket range, an icebreaking science ship and professors who’ve published more Arctic research than any other university worldwide. But we offer far more than science — we’re enriched by a full suite of art, theater, film and language programs. It’s no wonder U.S. News & World Report calls UAF a top-tier national university — the only one in Alaska.
Check out our campuses
There’s no better way to find out if UAF is right for you than to visit. We’ve limited in-person tours, but you can see the Fairbanks campus virtually via one of our online field trips. Or attend a regular online information session. And you can always call and talk with a student, professor or staff member.
