Members from both the Office of Admission and the Office of Scholars and Fellowships will speak about merit scholarship opportunities at the University of Richmond. This is your opportunity to dive deeper into merit aid awards and how we select recipients. We encourage you to bring questions or concerns about merit scholarships selection.
Speakers:
Rebecca Buffington, Director of Admission
Dana Kuchem, Director of Scholars and Fellowships
Undergrad College: Rice University '20
Work Experience: During my time at Rice, I mentored dozens of high school students through the college application process, along with editing essays and tutoring students for the ACT/SAT. I also interned at a medical technology startup, conducted research in Brazil, and gave a TEDx talk. I recently finished applying to medical school; I've been admitted to multiple schools, and will be starting in the Fall.
My Admissions Story: I remember feeling very blindsided by the admissions process and not knowing where to begin. I hope that sharing my experiences and some of the things I’ve learned along the way will help guide other students in a similar boat.
