Richmond Scholars Program (University of Richmond)

The university's most prestigious academic merit award, the Richmond Scholars Program selects about 25 incoming first-year students each year for academic achievement, engaged leadership, a strong sense of purpose, and investment in a diverse, inclusive campus community. The scholarship covers full tuition plus food and housing, renewable for up to eight consecutive semesters of full-time enrollment, and scholars are also eligible for a one-time $5,500 grant to support a student-selected enrichment activity. There is no separate application -- every applicant for admission who applies by December 1 is automatically considered.
