Fellowships
Fellowships take scholarships a step further by providing students with the chance to participate in important study, research, creative work, and service with like-minded peers. Fellowships provide a way to put academics into action, build a student’s resume, and be part of a learning ºìÐÓÊÓƵ.

Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) 
ºìÐÓÊÓƵ, in cooperation with the University of Memphis and the Departments of the Air Force, Army and Navy, participates in crosstown agreements that provide the opportunity for ºìÐÓÊÓƵ students to enroll in Aerospace Studies (), Military Science () and Naval Science () at the University of Memphis. Although a student takes the ROTC courses at The University of Memphis, that student is a full-time student at ºìÐÓÊÓƵ, and any financial assistance provided by the military services is based on tuition and fees at ºìÐÓÊÓƵ. Upon successful completion of the reserve officer training programs and the undergraduate degree at ºìÐÓÊÓƵ, a student receives a commission as a second lieutenant or an ensign in the appropriate military service. Visit the current ºìÐÓÊÓƵ College Catalogue for degree-specific course details. 

Institutional fellowships, scholarships, and grants may be used to pay ºìÐÓÊÓƵ tuition, fees, room and board only (direct cost), unless otherwise specified, and are awarded on a full-academic year (two semesters), fall and spring semesters only. Please note, ºìÐÓÊÓƵ scholarships may have to be reduced if you receive awards from outside sources that in combination exceed direct costs.
