End of Year Challenge
We are featuring a NEW scholarship for our annual End of the Year Challenge! The JMU POSC Department Transfer Scholarship will be designed to ease a portion of the financial stress faced by incoming students. Enrollment data verifies that transfer students are more diverse than their four-year peers; supporting this cause enables JMU to compete for the best student recruits, thereby increasing the value of a JMU education, while expanding and diversifying our alumni network.
We strive to “BE THE CHANGE” – what better way to exemplify our motto than by opening a door for a future Duke? Your generosity will be inherited by the next generation of JMU students. Shared kindness is imbued on JMU’s campus; it is critical we continue to pass it on. Our humanity is what sets us apart from so many other institutions.
The Transfer Student Scholarship is a need-based award that assists students transferring to JMU for their final two years of study. The scholarship will cover $1,500 of tuition for one year, and is renewable for one additional year.
