Davis New Mexico Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Davis New Mexico Scholarship
About Us
Founded in 2014, our organization was created with a clear purpose: to increase the number of first-generation college-going students from New Mexico who complete a four-year degree. Since our launch, we have distributed over $54 million in scholarship funds and $3.7 million in grants. The Davis New Mexico Scholarship is part of that work and is intended to close the generational opportunity gap across the state.
Who is Eligible
The Davis New Mexico Scholarship is designed for New Mexican students who are the first in their families to pursue college and who demonstrate academic success, determination, and the perseverance needed to graduate within four years. Applicants must be enrolled in at least one of our affiliate programs and committed to earning a college degree.
How to Apply
Qualified candidates should submit their application for the Davis New Mexico Scholarship during the fall of their senior year through the Common Application. The selection process is thorough: applicants must provide essays, official transcripts, and a counselor recommendation. Note: applying to the Davis New Mexico Scholarship via the Common Application also enables you to apply to many colleges and universities across New Mexico and the United States using the same submission.
