Continuing Students

Brother Raymond F. Schnepp Math Scholarships

Brother Schnepp was born in Chicago in 1896, entered the Society of Mary in 1913, and taught mathematics in Missouri, Louisiana, and Texas for the next 60 years. During this time he stimulated many bright students with his incisive wit, generosity of spirit, and scholarly interest in mathematics and related subjects.

Current students who are majoring or intend to major in mathematics at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ are eligible to apply for a Schnepp Scholarship. The typical award ranges from $500 to $1000.  Awards are made in the spring of each year to apply to the student’s financial aid package for the following academic year.  Awards are for one year only, but recipients in one year may apply again in subsequent years.

Frank and Frances Guinta Scholarships

Richard A. Guinta is an alumnus (1969) of the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ Department of Mathematics. In recognition of the struggle for many of his peers to afford a ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ education, he has created this scholarship in the memory of his parents to aid present-day students who face the same struggle.

Current mathematics, computer science, or data science majors at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ who demonstrates both outstanding academic performance and financial need are eligible to apply for a Guinta Scholarship. Awards up to $10,000 are made in the spring of each year and apply to the student’s financial aid package for the following academic year.
