Scholarships

“Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to come here,” says a freshman BSHS student.

And a junior nursing major who chose UMR over another area school says, “I wanted to come here, but my parents were worried because the tuition was higher. My scholarship helped offset that.”

A non-traditional graduate student says, “It’s more than just the monetary support. It’s knowing someone ‘out there’ is interested in my future.”

These three students, and many more, have at least one thing in common – a scholarship at UMR. Our brief history Is filled with stories like these.
