Machen Florida Opportunity Scholars Program

The Machen Florida Opportunity Scholars (MFOS) program is a full-ride scholarship with no loans or work study. The program also offers students comprehensive advising, mentorship, workshops and support.

A top university education that you can be proud of.

But what does a top-5 university mean to you? For starters, your name and that of your college will be tied together forever. So where you earn your degree does matter. Employers also put value in rankings. If you want a top-dollar career, then why not apply to a top-5 university that's affordable?
