Presidential Scholarship Program
Presidential Scholar Graduate Award
The Presidential Scholarship program has been changing lives for decade, and we knew it was time for us to do more! That’s why a few forward-thinking donors stepped up to help launch the first of its kind Presidential Scholarship Graduate Award. This scholarship recruits and retains Presidential Scholars after they graduate with a bachelor’s degree and provides much needed financial assistance to attend UNM graduate school.
We are incredibly grateful for everyone who supports our Presidential Scholars, whether today or in the future.

Presidential Scholarship Celebrates 50 Years of Excellence
Since 1976, many of New Mexico’s highest achieving and most committed high school graduates attend UNM each year thanks to their Presidential Scholarship. These scholars earned the right to be called Presidential Scholars through their academic performance and community service. They enrich New Mexico and exemplify student success as Lobos on the UNM campus throughout their college careers and long after they graduate. This scholarship program embodies the best of New Mexico by providing Scholars the ability to focus on their educational careers with significantly less financial burden.
