Army ROTC National Scholarship
Senior students can apply right now for the Army ROTC National Scholarship. It's a great way for students to attend college, pay for it, and grow as a leader.
There's still time for students to apply for the scholarship. Students have until March 4th to create an account and March 16th to finish the application. Attached is a flyer with more information on how to apply.
The scholarship covers 100% tuition and fees for 3 or 4 years. In addition to the tuition scholarship, at WKU, students can also receive the room and board incentive (that's another $9,000+ per year).
Here is a little more information about our program.

We provide outstanding cadre support, mentorship, and excellent physical and mental training both inside and outside the classroom. Our goal in ROTC is to develop leaders and commission Officers in the United States Army. Students take 1 ROTC leadership class per semester while pursuing any degree at WKU.
