Creating Opportunities For Every Student
The University of Maine at Farmington has a long tradition of opening the first door to higher education for students who may not have otherwise had the opportunity. We want every qualified student to have the opportunity for the UMF experience without barriers created by price.
A life-changing education is essential but expensive. Over 85 percent of UMF’s students seek financial aid. We must meet this need. The Leadership Starts Here! Scholarship Campaign will increase scholarship funds that invest in the future of talented students.
Many alumni can remember the people in their lives who made their college education possible. We want to continue making a difference in students’ lives and together, with your help, we will.
