New Automatic Scholarships Plan
In an effort to increase first-time college enrollment at UMKC, a strategic scholarship plan has been developed in conjunction with recommendations provided by consulting firm Ruffalo Noel Levitz. This plan consists of increasing scholarship funding in first-time college merit-based awards beginning in the fall of 2019 to remain competitive in the market while maximizing net tuition revenue.
Below is a summary of those scholarship changes.
