Give a gift that benefits our entire region: a contribution to the Universities at Shady Grove’s (USG) General Scholarship Fund. A gift to general scholarships at USG puts your dollars to work where they are needed the most, helping deserving students with tuition and fee support as they pursue their degrees.
Approximately 65% of students at USG qualify for financial assistance, but only about half of the students who apply for scholarships are awarded, due to lack of funds. Many of those students will be left with no choice but to abandon their academic pursuits. Your gift to the General Scholarship Fund offers hope.
Here are a few past scholarship recipients to tell you how much your contribution means to a student and our community.
