Madison Engel, from Gum Spring, Virginia, and a junior at James
Madison University, was named the winner of the College Tuition
Scholarship from Discover Student Loans. The 2017 scholarship award
will help Madison cover up to $20,000 for college tuition.
“My schedule is already pretty full with balancing my chemistry
coursework, exams and extracurricular activities, so it was such an
amazing feeling when I found out I won the scholarship from
Discover Student Loans,” said Engel. “The scholarship allowed me to
focus on school and to have less loans to pay off once I
graduate.”
“We are happy to help Madison by awarding her this scholarship
and hope it leads to more students taking advantage of the millions
of dollars in free money available through grants and
scholarships,” said Mike Boush, senior vice president of Discover
Student Loans.
From June 19 through July 31, participants entered online at

to enter or win.

opportunities, including a $2,500 scholarship and a free
