The Greehey Scholars Program is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for qualified incoming undergraduate freshmen who are exceptional scholars committed to excellence in every aspect of their lives.

Due to the generosity of alumnus Bill Greehey, the Greehey Scholars Program awards four-year,  renewable scholarships to each Greehey Scholar that include:

• St. Mary’s University tuition

• Stipends for St. Mary’s University study abroad opportunities

• Funding for extra-curricular activities such as business travel within the Program

The Greehey Scholars Program develops students who exhibit outstanding ethical leadership, technical excellence, global awareness and professional orientation, challenging them to the highest standards of commitment and achievement. Scholars set this example by engaging in the principles of constant learning, serving and leading, not only in business environments, but also in their communities.

In 2009, Rosie Perez joined the Greehey Scholars Program at St. Mary's University in San Antonio, Texas as an Administrative Assistant.

In 2022, Rosie Perez was promoted to Program Coordinator for the Greehey Scholars Program.

Rosie and her husband Eric have been married for 17 years and have a 13 year-old cat named January, a five month-old special needs puppy named Zorro, two anti-social fish, and a middle school-aged son who supposedly knows everything.
