WINTER SCHOLARSHIPS

A limited number of winter scholarships are awarded to UMBC degree-seeking students who are close to graduating and have a strong GPA. Financial need (as documented by the student's 2012/2013 FAFSA form) is also considered.

Deadline

The deadline for eligible UMBC degree-seeking students to apply online was 5:00 pm on Friday, November 16.

The Scholarship Review Committee will meet in early December, and results will be e-mailed to the students who applied.  Applications that do not meet the minimum qualifications (listed below) will not be considered by the Scholarship Review Committee.

All decisions by the Scholarship Review Committee are final.
