We were notified that Columbia University has been selected by the Pat Tillman Foundation as a Tillman Military Scholar University Partner. This prestigious and selective partnership will provide an opportunity for Columbia student veterans or their spouses to apply for the Tillman Military scholarship.

The Pat Tillman Foundation seeks to create a community of scholars dedicated to improving their own lives, the lives of their families and their country by creating a spirit of service. The Tillman Military Scholars program supports this population by removing financial barriers to completing a degree program of choice. After selection, the program provides a forum supported by community and resources, where leadership, service and advocacy have an opportunity to flourish and in doing so creates an environment where the next generation of America’s leaders can hone their focus and skills through education while also developing a deep and real engagement within our communities.

Applications are due March 16th.
