Scholarship Opportunities - Alumni Association

Thanks to its members, the Maryland Alumni Association has multiplied its scholarship offerings and expanded them beyond incoming students! The alumni association is proud to provide 15 scholarships this fall: 10 undergraduate sophomores, juniors or seniors will be awarded $2,000 apiece, and five graduate students will each receive $3,000. Additionally one legacy student will be awarded $750 through the Col. J. Logan Schutz Legacy Scholarship. Previously, the alumni association awarded up to three full-year scholarships for incoming freshmen only.

Ideal applicants will volunteer in their communities or on campus, participate in extracurricular activities and write a compelling essay on building Terrapin spirit among the student body. And, special consideration will be given to relatives of alumni association members.
