The Regents' Scholars Program provides scholarships of up to $5,000 per year to hundreds of first-generation college students at Texas A&M through the Texas A&M Foundation.

"This scholarship has meant more to me than just funding. It has allowed me to focus on my education and the things that I care about the most without having to worry about paying for college, as well as given me wonderful first time experiences that I won't soon forget," said Kimberly Berry '16, a senior from Houston, Texas, majoring in performance studies with a minor in business administration.

As if serving as a major unit commander in the Corps of Cadets and being a Regents' Scholar were not enough, Berry has also served on the Liberal Arts Student Council for three years, served as chapter treasurer and president of the national theatre honor society Alpha Psi Omega, and is a member of Aggie Artists, a Christian student organization that fosters creative expression.

I really like the idea of helping 1st generation college students. It goes back to the founding principles of Aggieland, upward mobility and education for the working class folks.

I was a recipient of this scholarship. I would not have been able to attend Texas A&M without this amazing opportunity.
