Milgard Scholars Program
This scholarship provides up to $4,500 per year to selected students. As part of the program, scholarship recipients are expected to particpate in an experiential learning opportunity (undergraduate research, tutoring, voluntary tax preparation, service to the program). Each provides a unique opportunity to expand skills and experience.
In addition to maintaining a minimum cumulative 3.0 GPA and completing an average of 36 credit hours (12 credits per quarter), each student must contribute approximately 20 hours each quarter in their selected learning opportunity.
Milgard Scholars will be invited to attend a special dinner at the end of the academic year to present the culmination of their projects to Business Advisory Board members, peers, and members of the Milgard family.
