Please visit us for a scholarship workshop given on Thursday, March 12, from 10 am-11 am at the TSU Writing Center, room 310, Student Success Center (aka LRC).
Come hear how KeAnna, a TSU student, received over $35,000 in total for 2018-2019 and the 2019-2020 school year.
Then, writing instructor/tutor and scholarship coach, Mike Turner, will tell you how the Writing Center can assist you in finding internships and scholarships.
Next, writing instructor/tutor, Lori Danley, will go over what you should include in a resume when applying for internships and scholarships, and how your resume is a “living” document, needing to change depending upon the opportunity or your aspirations.
