UNM Presidential Scholarship

For the past thirty years, Presidential Scholarships have been awarded to graduates of New Mexico high schools who come directly to The University of New Mexico to commence undergraduate education. Presidential Scholarships are funded by contributions of individuals, corporations, alumni, faculty, staff, and the University’s Hugh Woodward Trust Fund. The Scholars receive their award for four consecutive years if academic standards and full-time progress toward a degree are maintained. The University is pleased that the Presidential Scholarship Program has attracted some of New Mexico’s finest students to the campus.
