Some scholarship awards are made on the basis of academic performance and others on the basis of financial need. This Web site lists the requirements for each of the scholarship programs.
To be eligible, you must be a citizen or permanent resident of the United States and a degree-seeking student at UMUC. In addition, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the UMUC Scholarship Application. Unless otherwise stated, the minimum enrollment requirement during the award period is 3 credits. UMUC scholarships are generally awarded for the fall and/or spring semesters only.
If you receive a scholarship you must complete 100 percent of your coursework during each enrollment period. If you receive an award for the academic year (fall and spring) but do not complete 100 percent of the coursework during the fall semester, your award will be automatically canceled for the spring semester.
You may reapply for award consideration in the next academic year.
We wish you success in your pursuit of scholarship and grant assistanceand in achieving your academic goals.
