The Meliora Alumni Scholarship
The Meliora Alumni Scholarship recognizes the unique commitment that a child or grandchild of a Rochester graduate has to carry on the family tradition while also creating their own legacy. This scholarship typically awards $5,000 to $10,000 towards an undergraduate education. During the online application process when legacy students apply for admission to the University, a student can indicate that they have a parent or grandparent that is a University graduate. Once that selection is made, a menu item will be made available and the student will be asked to provide additional information and to apply for the Meliora Alumni Scholarship. Please note that students only have the one opportunity to apply for the Meliora Alumni Scholarship during the online application process. Once an application for admission has been submitted, the window of opportunity for the scholarship has passed.
