Western Governors University Troops To Teachers Supplemental Scholarship

Western Governors University is pleased to offer the Troops To Teachers Supplemental Scholarship. These scholarships are designed to help active-duty military and Veterans become teachers through an online program leading to certification. These scholarships are in addition to the regular Troops To Teachers stipends available to qualified individuals.
Multiple scholarships will be awarded. Scholarships will be awarded based upon a candidate’s academic record, readiness for online study, and current competency, plus other considerations. See eligibility requirements below.
The scholarship is valued up to $1,500. The scholarship will be credited to your account at the rate of $300 per six-month term. Although WGU's competency-based model allows students to complete the requirements of a graduate program in less than two and a half years, the scholarship awards are based on a reasonable experience of five six-month terms to complete your program. Scholarship funds are provided through WGU and are a non-guaranteed supplement to the official Troops to Teachers stipend.
