MURFREESBORO — For
high school seniors planning to begin college at Middle Tennessee State
University in August 2016, guaranteed scholarships are available to prospective
students who:
• Meet academic requirements.
• Complete the application.
• Pay the application fee by Tuesday, Dec. 1.
“Students don’t have to fill out any additional scholarship
applications to be considered for any of our guaranteed scholarships, but what
they must do is complete the admissions application to MTSU (including
submission of the online application, application fee and sixth-semester high
school transcripts) by Dec. 1,” said Laurie Witherow, associate vice provost for
undergraduate recruitment in Student Affairs.
Guaranteed scholarships range from $2,000 to $5,000 a year
