Morgan State University is a small HBCU located in northeast Baltimore, Maryland. There are approximately 7,000 students attending the university.

MSU Cheerleaders are considered part of the Athletic Department family and they follow NCAA rules for eligibility to participate in collegiate sports. (NCAA Clearinghouse not required) All cheerleaders must maintain a 2.0 or above and carry a minimum of (12) credits at all times. In order to be considered for a scholarship, a GPA of 2.5 or above is required. Failure to maintain a 2.5 throughout the entire academic year will compromise the life of the athlete's scholarship. At NCA College Nationals, Morgan State Cheer Bears have finished as high as 2nd Place in the All-Girl I Division (Equivalency to the NCAA's FCS Division or Division I-AA).

The Morgan State University Cheerleaders face a rigorous schedule every year. The teams cheer at most away football games and all home football and men's/women's basketball contests. Under the direction of Head CoachTheresa Gibson and Assistant Coaches Marcus Ewell and Denise Thomas, members of the team are involved in community/university service and public appearances as well as participating in at least 3-5 cheerleading competitions annually.
