Scholarships

Each year The University Ladies Club awards scholarships to University of Texas at Austin students from the Austin area, as they endeavor to reach their educational goals. These scholarships evolved from the Lucille Taylor Moore Loan Fund (1935), and the Centennial Endowed Presidential Scholarship Fund that the University Ladies Club established in 1983. Students may apply for the scholarship through the University of Texas at Austin Office of Student Financial Aid. This office makes selections and administers the scholarships on behalf of The University Ladies Club.
