West Texas Running Club is pleased to announce the West Texas Running Club / Texas Tech University Scholarship.
Applications are due May 1, 2012.
Applicants must:
1. have a letter of nomination from a WTRC member
2. complete and submit a standardized application form
3. attend Texas Tech University.
Preference will be given to undergraduate students who are permanent residents of West Texas as defined: the area north of Interstate 20, as far west as Pecos, and to west of a line from Abilene to Wichita Falls. Preference will also be given to full-time students (minimum 12 credit hours) who have completed at least one semester. Stipends of up to $500 per semester will be awarded based on the following criteria: participation in extracurricular activities, participation in school activities, leadership positions held, academic record, and financial need. Special consideration is given to candidates who participate in activities that are consistent with the goals of the club. It is expected that recipients of this scholarship either run in or volunteer at the Red Raider Road Race the morning of the event (mid-October). Scholarship applications are due on May 1, 2012. In the event that funds are still available after the initial awards have been made, late applications will be considered.
