The Tillman Scholar Program supports high-impact active or veteran service members and their spouses by covering the needs left unpaid by the GI Bill®* and other government support. Scholarship amounts are determined by the strength of the applicant and extent of financial need; with funds averaging $10,000 per award, per academic year of the enrolled degree program. Tillman Scholars become members of an engaged network and gain essential resources that empower them to serve and lead in their local communities and ease the transition from military to civilian life. The program is looking for active-duty and veteran service members and spouses with strong academic and leadership potential and a deep desire to impact change through their studies in the fields of medicine, law, business, government, education and the arts.
