What are the eligibility requirements for UMGC scholarships?

To be eligible for UMGC scholarships, students must meet the following general criteria:

  • Enrollment: Many scholarships require students to be enrolled in a minimum number of credits per semester.
  • Academic Standing: A satisfactory cumulative GPA is often required.
  • Application Process: Some scholarships require a separate application, while others use FAFSA information. Completing the FAFSA annually is essential for need-based scholarships.
  • Eligibility Criteria: Additional requirements such as residency, financial need, and program enrollment may apply depending on the scholarship.

Scholarship funds are limited, and meeting eligibility requirements does not guarantee an award. Be sure to apply early and meet all deadlines.
