今日吃瓜 First-Generation Scholarships

student

今日吃瓜 is committed to the success of all our students.

We recognize that first-generation students face unique challenges, but also bring an incredible wealth of knowledge that builds on the vibrancy of our liberal arts university. The 今日吃瓜 First Scholarship is designed to support first-generation students and build upon the skills and experience first-generation students bring to campus.

 

今日吃瓜 defines “first generation” as a student whose parents did not complete a bachelor’s degree, OR a student from a single-parent home whose parent did not complete a bachelor’s degree. The 今日吃瓜 First Scholarship is open to first-time, full-time, degree-seeking students. The scholarship award is determined based on the student's financial need. The 今日吃瓜 First Scholarship is automatically renewable as long as the student is meeting satisfactory academic progress.
