Congratulations to the recipients of the 2011 Alumni Legacy Scholarship
Samantha Titshaw, Forest Bonner, David Ezell and Tori Craddock
When
the Alumni Association was formed in 1914, not only was the
organization created to keep alumni connected to their alma mater, but
also to support the very livelihood of the college – the
students. Scholarships for current students are a priority. We are
committed to continuing this tradition by offering not only the Alumni
Legacy Scholarship, but by also supporting scholarships through the
MTSU general scholarship fund.
The Alumni Association is proud to maintain our Blue Raider pride.
The Scholarship
The
award is a one year scholarship in the amount of $500/semester
($1000/year). The award will be made to continuing students heading
into the fall of their sophomore, junior or senior year. The
scholarship is a one year award but students may reapply without
priority, as long as a student remains in good academic standing at
MTSU, is making satisfactory progress towards an undergraduate degree
and maintains a full time course load
(minimum of 12 hours).
Eligibility
Recipients
of the Alumni Legacy Scholarship will have strong academic performances
along with involvement and leadership while at MTSU. Applicants will
have completed 30 hours of undergraduate work at MTSU and have a
minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.8. The applicant’s academic
record will be verified through the MTSU Financial Aid Office.
At least one parent, grandparent, step parent, or adoptive parent must be a graduate of MTSU.
The
selection committee shall consider academic performance, leadership,
community service, honors, and career goals in making their
selection. The committee shall determine the relative weight given to
each criterion. There are no restrictions to applicants based on sex,
race, and nationality, country of origin, physical disability, veteran
status, or sexual orientation.
The application deadline for the 2013-2014 scholarship has passed.
