Tennessee Tech Tomorrow

Scholarships

The Campaign for Tennessee Tech University

A strong academic reputation, second to none, has been the hallmark of a Tennessee Tech education from the beginning. Today, there are more than 10,000 reasons to invest in Tennessee Tech. Our students and faculty are the driving force of this university. All the credit for what Tech is today goes to the people who have studied, worked and supported us in from our founding.

Focusing on scholarships will give Tennessee Tech the ability to recruit the best and the brightest students and prepare young minds to enter a changing workforce. In this focus area, we will place emphasis on:

• Undergraduate and graduate excellence scholarships
• Non-traditional student scholarships
• Deans’ scholars program to link students with successful alumni
• Study-abroad scholarships

While the university offers more than 550 different scholarships, only one in three students receives an academic scholarship to Tennessee Tech. By increasing the amount of academic, need-based, nontraditional, undergraduate, graduate and study abroad scholarship support available for students, we can continue to recruit and retain the type of student Tennessee Tech can be proud to graduate and provide an education to students who would otherwise not be able to afford one.
