WESTMINSTER, Md. – McDaniel College has awarded select freshmen and transfer students with $100,000 Educator’s Legacy Scholarships. 

Children with a parent or guardian who has at least four years of current and consecutive full time employment at a K-12 school or community college can apply for this guaranteed scholarship to attend McDaniel College.
