Inaugural Scholarship Ball

The University of Texas Permian Basin is hosting its Inaugural Scholarship Ball to raise money for our General Scholarship Fund. These dollars support all students at UT Permian Basin. More than 90% of enrolled students at UTPB are eligible for scholarship funds, and many students depend on these dollars to complete their college degrees. All proceeds from the Scholarship Ball support this important initiative.

Become A Sponsor

Each year at the Scholarship Ball we will honor the recipients of our Distinguished Alumni Award, the Distinguished Young Alumni Award, and for the first time ever, the UT Permian Basin Excellence Award.
