MURFREESBORO, Tenn. —For Johnson City-area high school students, there’s a new incentive — an enhanced Presidential Scholarship — for prospective students attending Middle Tennessee State University and next week’s True Blue Tour.
Johnson City and Northeast Tennessee will be the ninth stop on MTSU’s four-state, 14-city tour to recruit prospective students for 2019 and beyond. MTSU visits Tuesday, Oct. 23, for a 6 p.m. student reception — at the Carnegie Hotel, 1216 W. State of Franklin Road, in Johnson City.
MTSU travels across Tennessee and to Atlanta, Georgia; Huntsville and Birmingham, Alabama; and Bowling Green and Louisville, Kentucky, to hold recruiting events.
The True Blue Tour events are free. To register for the reception or counselor luncheon, visit www.mtsu.edu/rsvp.
The Murfreesboro university recently announced a consolidation of scholarships into the new Presidential award, which can mean $18,000 ($4,500 per year) for four years for qualifying students with a 25 to 29 on their ACT and a 3.5 or higher GPA, and applying by Dec. 1.
MTSU President Sidney A. McPhee will share this news and more with students.
“Our key annual recruiting event, the True Blue Tour, gets bigger and better each year, and we’re looking forward to meeting prospective students,” McPhee said.
To take a closer look at campus life, MTSU offers one more Saturday fall preview day — Nov. 3 starting at 8 a.m. in the Student Union — plus daily campus tours at 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. that begin in the Student Services and Admissions Center. Schedule a tour at www.mtsu.edu/tours.
