$5,000 Student Scholarship Giveaway

  • A $5,000 scholarship will be awarded to one student during the 4th Quarter at each home game at Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium during the 2018 season.
  • A student ticket scan report will be run during the game in order to identify students that scanned into the stadium prior to kickoff. These will be the only students eligible to receive the $5,000 scholarship prize.
  • During the first half, the student scan list will be randomized and three names will be selected as potential winners.
  • At the second media timeout in the fourth quarter, we will announce the first winning name over the PA system and on the video board. That winning student will then have five minutes to report to the Marketing Table located on the concourse behind Section 11.
  • If that student does not arrive to claim their prize within five minutes, the next student name on the randomized list of three students will be selected and announced. This will continue to occur until the prize is claimed by a student in attendance, the list is exhausted, or the game ends. If the prize is not claimed by the end of the game, that $5,000 scholarship will roll over to the next game. As such, the next game's prize would be a $10,000 scholarship.
    • Since the scholarship went unclaimed at the Michigan State game on Nov. 3, the scholarship prize for the Ohio State game on Nov. 17 will be $10,000.
  • The scholarship amount will not exceed $10,000. For example, if the scholarship goes unclaimed two games in a row, the prize will not increase to $15,000. It will remain at $10,000 until it is claimed, at which time it will reset to $5,000 at the next home game.
  • If time allows, the winning student will be recognized on the video board prior to the end of the game.
