Student Stories

Harry Furey-Soper

As a Martin Honors Scholarship recipient, one thing I believe is that it is important for transfer students to be aware of transfer-specific scholarship opportunities, such as the Martin Scholarships or the Washington NASA Space Grant transfer student scholarship.
