Students interested in applying for TSU Foundation scholarships should go to the above website, beginning on Monday, February 19, 2018.
Deadline for applying for scholarships is Saturday, March 31, 2018.
Only on-line applications will be accepted.
All Foundation housed scholarships must be applied for on-line
Scholarship funding is limited and meeting the minimum requirements for a scholarship does not guarantee scholarship selection.
New and currently enrolled undergraduate students may apply.
For questions regarding the scholarship application process, students should contact Dr. Darlene Harris-Vasser at 615-963-5794.
Note: Do not simply fill out the application with minimal information. Include identifying information—for example, mention your position, the name of the organization, and include a brief description of what the organization does.
Here is a made up example:

Hi Mr.Turner, for the first scholarship is it legit? Because it’s asking for my social security. I just wanna make sure before I turn it in.

Yes, it is legitimate, but good question.
After filling out the application and attaching the letter of recommendation, I would recommend sealing both of them in an envelope and walking it over to the school’s post office in the student center.
You want to put this address on the envelope:
