    Your wife is not eligible to work in US since she is on a dependent visa. So if scholarship does not require her to work, she can accept it.

    If your wife has been on H4 visa for over a year, she might be eligible to pay in-state tuition fee. Check what the state laws on qualification for in-state tuition are. TX has one year of stay as a requirement, NJ does not have provision for in-state tuition rates for immigrants on temporary visas (that includes H visa).
