A note from us:
Hello, Collegiate Knott Scholars!
The fall has been busy and wonderful all at the same time. First Fruits was a huge success (35,000 pounds of potatoes were harvested?!) and we got to see so many of you at your school during our fall visits. Thank you for being a part of this community!
Our Building Connections event is set for February 7th at Notre Dame of Maryland University. This year is all about taking that leap of faith in your educational journey beyond your fears and the perceived risks. Afterall, “It’s What You Make of It!” Please see below for details, register and mark your calendars! As a reminder, you must participate in one event to maintain your scholarship.

We offer a personal development program (for our high school and college Scholars only) called “Building Connections“. The program details are here: https://www.knottscholar.org/building-connections/. Each year we come together to build life skills outside of the classroom. Our 2026 event is all about “It’s What You Do With It” and will be focused on how you can take advantage of your education, take risks and face challenges knowing they will all lead you to your ultimate goal of success. This event will be held on February 7th (inclement weather date is 2/21/26) at Notre Dame of Maryland University and we cannot wait to see you all there!
