We give our students the knowledge and experience they need to succeed! Your contributions to the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences during UMassGives on Wednesday, April 24 and Thursday, April 25 will support student scholarships.
Noteworthy upcoming seniors with financial need will have a chance to receive a $500 scholarship to help them complete their degree and take the next step in their career. These funds can help with tuition, graduate school application fees, expenses during internships, or getting ahead in a job search. Also, this year the Department will match our total donations up to $2,500!
Please help us support our students’ success by providing funds for senior scholarships! HELP US WIN our Wednesday, April 24 POWER HOUR from 12 – 1 p.m.! The organization with the most individual donations during this hour will receive a bonus prize of up to $2,000.*
