Ned McWherter Scholarship

As we previously posted, the Ned McWherter Scholars Program is intended to encourage academically superior Tennessee high school seniors to attend college in Tennessee. Award amounts are up to $6,000 per academic year (i.e. $3,000 from TSAC and up to $3,000 from the college).  To apply, a student must have a minimum 29 ACT Composite/1280 SAT (Math and Critical Reading only) and a minimum 3.5 GPA, and you must plan on attending college in Tennessee.

If you are interested in applying, you can find the on-line application at http://1.usa.gov/16mA2P6. The application deadline is February 15.

NOTE:  The college office MUST send a 7th semester transcript, so please let us know once you have submitted your application.  Otherwise, you will not be considered.

Also, TSAC has notified us that if you see any "ineligible" notifications in the system to please disregard. Those will disappear once they determine your eligibility.
