Scholarship Opportunity for students with disabilities.
Preply (an online tutoring platform company) has a scholarship program for individuals with learning disabilities, and wants to invite the students of UMBC to apply for it. This year, they will award $3.000, $1.500, and $750 to the 3 best applicants. They can use the money to cover their educational expenses or to learn a language.
