Hennepin Scholars

Dollars for Scholars, sponsored by the United Methodist Higher Education Foundation (UMHEF), provides scholarship assistance to United Methodist students who attend United Methodist-related schools, colleges, universities and seminaries in the United States. The Minnesota United Methodist Foundation (MNUMF) is a partner in the program, specifically to aid United Methodist students from Minnesota. Under the Dollars for Scholars program, UMHEF will provide a $1,000 scholarship to match a $1,000 award from the student’s local church. In addition, the United Methodist-related school and the MN United Methodist Foundation also will provide matching $1,000 scholarships, for a total award of $4,000.

UMHEF administers over 70 funded scholarships for United Methodists, some of which do not necessarily require attendance at a United Methodist-related institution. Visit www.gbhem to review the list and criteria for their various Loans and Scholarships.
