School of Health Professions scholarship funds are donated by private individuals who may specify that a scholarship applicant must be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident in order to be eligible for that particular scholarship. In this case, that particular scholarship would be restricted to individuals who meet this requirement (The University of Texas System Policy UTS138 pdf).
