Named Annual Scholarships

"When I was in high school, I looked forward to going to one of the finest art colleges in America, but many things deterred my dream. Financially, a MICA education just seemed out of reach. But today thanks to scholarships, I am where I always wanted to be, doing what I've always wanted to do. My future looks brighter every day."

--Deunte Ford '11, Eddie C. & C. Sylvia Brown Scholarship

Named annual scholarships can be created with a gift of $2,500 or more per year. A donor provides the funds through one or more donations each year. Many donors pledge to renew their gift annually for a term of years to ensure the scholarship's ongoing impact.

The donor and the College agree on an appropriate name and the general criteria for the scholarship. Some criteria the donor may want to consider include academic merit, financial need, or field of interest. To see a list of current named annual scholarships, click here.

Scholarship donors receive thank you letters from their scholarship students and are given the opportunity to meet the student at an annual campus event.
