Scholarships
UMUC awards scholarships to eligible graduate students in Europe who have completed 9 credit hours of the program. There are scholarships available in a wide range of categories for which students can qualify, including military members, family members, civilians, VA students, and TA students.
Scholarships are awarded on the basis of student's academic records and potential in accordance with the specific requirements for a given category. Each scholarship is in the form of a tuition and book credit which can be applied toward UMUC Europe courses and/or seminars during the academic year of the award, excluding the summer term. Scholarship information is located on the UMUC Europe Web site at www.ed.umuc.edu/fso or through the Financial Aid Office.
Financial Aid
University of Maryland University College Europe acts on behalf of Bowie State University as a processing agent for financial aid. Two federal financial aid programs are available to graduate students: the William D. Ford Federal Direct Subsidized Stafford Loan Program and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan. Student loans and Graduate Plus Loans, which are awarded by academic year, may be processed throughout the academic year. These loans may be used concurrently with VA educational benefits, military tuition assistance, and other types of financial assistance. Under current federal regulations, federal grants are not available to graduate students.
