Scholarships

Marymount University offers several performance-based academic/service scholarships. All scholarships are designed for full-time, first-degree undergraduates and can be applied to undergraduate tuition only, unless otherwise specified. Scholarships are renewable for four years of full-time study providing the student maintains a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5. Transfer students are eligible for some scholarships as well. Please see the following list for eligibility criteria and other details about Academic/Service Scholarships. Students interested in these scholarships should contact the Office of Admissions.

Marymount also has a number of need-based and merit scholarships funded by generous donors to the university. Students deserving consideration for such scholarships are typically identified by a school or department within the university. For further information about all available scholarships, contact the Office of Admissions or the specific school or department.

Academic/Service Scholarships

Clare Boothe Luce Scholarship

Offered pursuant to a major bequest to the university by Mrs. Luce.

The fund provides scholarships and support to highly qualified female undergraduate students to encourage them to study and earn a degree in biology, information technology/computer science/data science, or mathematics. Students who are committed to further study in the medical sciences are not eligible. Awards are made solely on the basis of merit. This scholarship cannot be used for study abroad or international travel. Eligibility is limited to women who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. Applications received by February 1 will be given priority consideration; late applications are accepted until May 1, contingent upon funding.

Spirit of Service Scholarship

Offered to students who have met high academic standards and have an outstanding record of volunteer service activity in their high school, church, and/or community agencies.

The award of $2,500 can be added to any existing Marymount merit scholarship. Scholars must continue full-time enrollment, maintain good academic standing, and complete 60 hours of volunteer service work each semester. Applications received by March 1 will be given priority consideration; late applications are accepted until May 1, contingent upon funding.

Marymount University recently signed a partnership with TheDream.US, the nation's largest college access and success program for DREAMers. This is an external scholarship for students with DACA and TSP status. For eligibility, application, and deadlines, please see TheDream.US National Scholarship website at www.thedream.us/scholarships/national-scholarship.

Merit Scholarships

Eligible, new full-time transfer students who intend to earn their first bachelor's degree are automatically offered the highest scholarship for which they qualify. Full-time students can renew the scholarship if they maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5.
