Scholarships

Discovery happens on laptops and desktops, in dorm rooms and classrooms, at home and abroad.  Your scholarship and fellowship gifts transform the future by educating talented and diverse leaders and preparing them for tomorrow's workforce.  Students who receive scholarships:

  • Take on less debt.
  • Have the time and space to participate in activities that enrich their personal and professional lives.
  • More likely to graduate on time.

With scholarships and fellowships available in a multitude of academic and interest areas, chances are you will find an existing scholarship or fellowship that you can support.  From scholarships that are specific to an area of study to scholarships that are available campus-wide; we welcome your generosity!

As a first generation college student from an immigrant household, attending college would not have been possible without scholarship support. After I graduate I hope to work as a hardware engineer in the medical or renewable energy field. My college education will allow me to help support my family to live comfortably. Receiving the UMD Robert J. Marchetti Engineering Scholarship has lessened my financial burden.
