Regarding Scholarship...

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I wasn't offered any scholarship for the Fall 2008 year (Computer Science major, undergraduate, freshmen).</p>

<p>If you work hard and maintain a good GPA (somewhat above 3.20), does UMCP consider you for some type of scholarship which is renewable if you maintain good progress?</p>

<p>A lot of the colleges within the university do offer departmental scholarships for current students; you could look at the CMPS website to see what they’ve got. 3.2 is a pretty low GPA for being awarded a scholarship (maintaining it is another story) so you might want to check into those numbers.</p>

<p>@lindz: Actually, these are the requirements for the CS department scholarships;</p>

<pre><code>* Full time student, undergraduate degree seeking student

  • Computer Science Major
  • Overall GPA of 3.0 or above
  • Unless otherwise indicated, must have completed two of (CMSC311, CMSC330, CMSC351)
    </code></pre>

<p>I was thinking of maintaining a 3.20. I can get a scholarship at 3.0 :slight_smile: I guess its really hard to maintain a 3.0 at UMCP Computer Science :S</p>
