Small Classes, Big Scholarships
Our religion majors and minors benefit from significant scholarship opportunities, with amounts ranging from a few hundred to several thousand dollars:
The goal of the Templeton Fund is to provide financial resources for students whose specific vocational aspirations include mindful service and ministry to others. Available to students majoring in Religion or minoring in Interfaith Leadership, Christian Studies or Religion.
Amounts have been significant and are likely to be renewed but could change over time based upon the continuance of the fund and also the number of Religion majors and minors.
For a worthy religion major or minor, with a financial need, chosen by the faculty.
Students must be studying for the ministry or associated careers in the ministry and demonstrate financial need. Full-time students only. Chosen by faculty.
For deserving students, preferably those from the Methodist Texas Conference area and preparing themselves for ministerial service.
The United Methodist Church's General Board of Higher Education and Ministry (GBHEM) Scholarships offer financial aid to United Methodist students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees. Each year, the organization awards an average of $5.5 million to help students in the United States and abroad pursue their dreams through higher education. With this financial aid, BGHEM is opening pathways for students of all backgrounds to earn their degrees and serve as the next generation of leaders for the church and the world.
