MAOP Scholarships

The Multicultural Academic Opportunities Program (MAOP), founded in 1993, is an academic success community founded upon the principles of self- efficacy, mentoring, and peer support. Central to the goal of MAOP is the promotion of diversification within the student body of Virginia Tech. Through partnerships with various academic colleges and departments at Virginia Tech, other colleges and universities, governmental entities, and various organizations, MAOP participants are supported with academic guidance, emotional and social support, and financial support. 

The scholarship is for Virginia residents and it is based on merit and unmet financial need. The application for the 2017-2018 Multicultural Academic Opportunities Program (MAOP) Undergraduate Scholarship is now open through April 15, 2017. 

The electronic application is available at www.maop.vt.edu.
