The University of New Mexico (UNM) offers various scholarship options for students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. Merit-based scholarships, such as the Amigo Scholarship and Regents’ Scholarship, recognize academic excellence. Need-based options include the UNM Grant, which assists low-income students.
Departmental scholarships cater to specific majors, while athletic scholarships support student-athletes. External scholarships, like the New Mexico Legislative Lottery Scholarship, are also available. Prospective students should check UNM’s financial aid portal for eligibility criteria and deadlines. Additionally, private organizations and community foundations offer scholarships for UNM attendees.
