Dr. Marguerite Markarian Scholarship

The Dr. Marguerite Markarian Scholarship was established by Maria A. Markarian, DO ’84, in memory of her aunt, Dr. Marguerite Markarian. It is presented to a first-, second-, or third-year COMP student in good academic standing, with a minimum 3.0 GPA, who demonstrates financial need.

Just a quick reminder—please limit your applications to a maximum of three awards.

Prohibition of AI-Generated Content
To maintain academic integrity and ensure the authenticity of work, the use of generative artificial intelligence tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Grammarly GO, Bard, or similar) to produce, rewrite, or substantially edit content in submissions is strictly prohibited. All submitted work must reflect the student’s own original thinking, analysis, and expression. Any use of AI-generated material will be considered a violation of academic honesty policies and may result in disqualification of award application.

Award amounts granted may vary each year depending on available funding.
