2016 Tillman Scholars application now open

I’m excited to let you know the application to join the 2016 Class of Tillman Scholars opened this morning and will remain open until March 1st.

The application is open to military veterans (active duty or separated, including National Guard & reserve) and spouses pursuing a full-time four-year, master’s, PhD, or professional degree at a US-based accredited institution. Each award is based on the applicant’s unique financial need—last year we committed $1.7M in academic scholarships to 60 Tillman Scholars.

The Tillman Scholars program unites the best talent and leadership from the military and military spouses and is not a gift; it’s an investment in excellence and potential.

A one-page overview can be found here.

Each year the Tillman Scholar applicants amaze us with their determination, perseverance, and desire to make this world a better place. Thanks in advance for helping share the application announcement so we can support military veterans and spouses with academic scholarships and a network of like-minded individuals.

Please direct any eligibility or criteria questions to scholarships@pattillmanfoundation.org.

Thank you!

Liz
