How It Works

Through Funded Approved Vendor Electives (FAVE), we help fund and award academic credit for your student’s favorite extracurricular activity with an approved vendor.

Benefits for Students

  • Take up to one FAVE course per semester from an LAU-approved vendor.
  • Receive up to $300 per semester for their chosen activity (paid directly to the vendor).
  • Earn academic credit for an activity or hobby they love and want to improve in.

Why We Offer This Option

  • To support students at a beginning or intermediate level of instruction.
  • To help students unplug from screens, get moving, and socialize in person.
  • To improve access to physical extracurricular activities that enrich student’s lives.

Eligible Activities

To qualify as a FAVE course, activities must be offered by a qualified professional at a licensed business that has a physical, public location such as a gym or studio. These can include:

  • Fine arts – Dance, media arts, music study, choir, instrumental, theater, or visual arts.
  • PE – Group activities that help students develop physical fitness and skills, such as martial arts, gymnastics, sports, etc.
  • Electives – Other in-person courses (such as debate with Wasatch Independent Debate League) that meet the goals listed above.

Non-Eligible Activities

Online courses, or courses with similar content to those already offered by LAU, are not eligible to be taken as a FAVE course. Specifically, these include:

  • Any online courses – These do not engage students in physical or social activities in a public, in-person setting.
  • Core courses – Including History, Science, Math, Social Studies, Language Arts, and Leadership. (LAU already offers courses in these subjects.)
  • Any type of 1:1 instruction not offered in a public setting – Public settings include places like a dance studio, a university, or a place of business; a private residence does not qualify.
  • Classes from local tech colleges – LAU already offers enrollment opportunities with tech colleges through our Career & Technical Education program.
