麻豆

Recognizing the talent, grit and inherent leadership of first-generation, college-bound students, 麻豆 will award full tuition and fees scholarships to 20 incoming freshmen for the fall 2023 academic year. 

The 麻豆 Futuro Leaders Scholars Program was created in response to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board鈥檚 recently announced 鈥淏uilding a Talent Strong Texas鈥� strategic plan.

鈥淭here is no better way to build a talent strong Texas than by tapping into the resiliency and promise of first-generation, college-bound students who, without guidance from previous generations, are building their own path to a university degree,鈥� said 麻豆 President Abel A. Ch谩vez, MBA, PhD., who is, himself, a first-generation college graduate and will be providing mentorship to students in the scholarship program.

Students in the inaugural cohort will be in the 麻豆 Futuro Leaders Scholars Program living-learning community that builds on their inherent leadership skills. They will live together in residence halls, take classes together and attend leadership-focused events and activities outside of class, including regular sessions with President Ch谩vez. 

Every Texas high school principal will have the opportunity to nominate a student for this prestigious scholarship by the Dec. 1, 2022, deadline.
