<Title>Goldwater Announcement</Title>
<Tagline>some information about this year's Goldwater Scholarship</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Dr. April Householder and the<a href="https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/undergradresearch/posts/136339" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> Undergraduate Research and Prestigious Scholarships Office have announced a workshop</a> on <u><strong>this Friday (10/20) from 12n-1pm in ITE 102</strong></u> for students who are interested in applying for the Goldwater Scholarship. Eligible students:<br>
    </div>
    <div>
    <ul>
    <li>Are current sophomores or juniors having 1 or 2 years of undergraduate study remaining</li>
    <li>Have an average of at least B or the equivalent (FYI, in recent years, nationally competitive applicants have had a GPA above 3.3)</li>
    <li>Are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.</li>
    <li>Have a demonstrated interest in a <u><em>research career </em></u>in the natural sciences, mathematics, or engineering.  The eligible fields of study <a href="https://goldwaterscholarship.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Fields-of-Study.pdf" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">are described in more detail here.</a>  Note: Students who intend to pursue a health profession are only eligible if they plan to have a significant research component to their career path (e.g., an MD/PhD)</li>
    </ul>
    <div>The application includes a <a href="https://goldwaterscholarship.gov/developing-the-research-essay/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Research Essay</a> that details either prior or proposed research by the applicant, so please keep this in mind as you share this information with potential applicants.</div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>As a prestigious scholarship, the Goldwater Scholarship has a two-step selection process. Students' applications are first reviewed by the UMBC Goldwater Committee, which selects up to 4 UMBC students to nominate to the National selection process, and the nominees then complete the National application process. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>In the past, Universities have been allowed an additional (5th) nominee if at least one applicant was a transfer student. This year they are allowing one additional nominee for a transfer student plus one additional nominee for a veteran student (for a max of 6 nominees)</div>
    <div>.</div>
    <div>Information about past Goldwater Scholars can be found on the <a href="https://ur.umbc.edu/prestigious-scholarships/goldwater-scholars/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Undergraduate Research and Prestigious Scholarships Web page</a>.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>FYI, this information has already been shared with Meyerhoff Scholars and their affiliated programs like URISE, so I encourage you all to think about students who have similar career goals and profiles but aren't a part of that circle, especially our transfer and veteran students!</div>
