UA Exploratory Preference Scholarship Showcase

Exploration is a strategy, not a set back.

We’re inviting MSU undergraduates to tell the real story of being an Exploratory Preference student—why exploration matters, how it works, and what it unlocks.

What we’re looking for

From a student perspective, show the value, role, purpose, and lived experience of exploratory majors at MSU. Be candid—include pros and cons, opportunities, barriers, and how advising, campus services, and communities help students move with purpose.
