The Reynolds and Reynolds Company Foundation has pledged $100,000 in scholarship funding for 20 exceptional students per year at Sam Houston State University.
Richard Rojas is a first-generation senior at SHSU majoring in accounting, finance and banking and is part of the first cohort to receive the Reynolds and Reynolds Annual Scholarship. He believes the award provides valuable support to ensure he reaches his career goals.
He said, “With an opportunity as important as this one, students like me can have the chance to not just attend college but also finish with academic excellence.”
An annual scholarship of $5,000 is awarded to 10 undergraduate students who are in good standing, enrolled fulltime with the College of Business Administration, and majoring in any discipline. An additional 10 undergraduate students who are in good standing and enrolled full-time in the College of Science & Engineering’s Department of Computer Science will be awarded scholarships.
SHSU is nationally recognized for student success, particularly for first-generation students and those traditionally underserved. The university’s award-winning programs, nationally and internationally recognized scholars, innovative initiatives and inclusive environment help students engage, succeed and meet critical workforce needs.
