New Scholarship Program
The awards are made to the top 10 percent of the entering students at TCC at the beginning of each trimester and based on the students’ academic credentials, personal qualities and demonstrated desire to be a leader as a Doctor of Chiropractic. All students who complete an application for admission to TCC will be considered.
The initial awards will be worth $1,000 each to the successful candidates. Scholars who attain a cumulative grade point average of 2.75 after three trimesters will be awarded Honors Scholarships which will provide an additional $2,000 over the course of the final seven trimesters of study at the College. In order to continue as Honors scholars, recipients must attain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 by the end of their sixth trimester of study and maintain that grade point average until graduation.
