2024-25 Scholarship Recipients
The Coterie of Missouri S&T has made history by awarding its largest-ever scholarship donation for the 2024-25 academic year. Three Missouri S&T students—Abigail Richner, Molly Fitzgerald, and Abigail Lebar—have each been awarded $6,000, totaling $18,000 in scholarships. This marks the first time Coterie has granted scholarships to three students in one year, a milestone for the organization.
The students were formally recognized during Coterie’s annual Fall Coffee membership drive on Saturday, Sept. 7, at Oak Meadow Country Club in Rolla.
The Coterie Scholarship supports students facing personal hardships or additional obligations that make completing their undergraduate degrees more challenging. To be eligible, recipients must have completed at least 60 credit hours and maintained satisfactory academic progress.
Coterie’s scholarships are funded by the interest earned from its endowment, which now exceeds $250,000. Coterie has awarded more than $125,000 in scholarships to S&T students since 2007.
