Tiger Scholars Informational Meeting

On Thursday, February 18, 2010, Mr. Turner, who has been giving scholarship seminars since 1996, will be holding a Tiger Scholars Informational Meeting.  The meeting will take place in the Learning Resource Center (LRC), room 123B, from 1:30 pm-2:30 pm.

Tiger Scholars is a group of TSU students dedicated to searching for scholarships, internships, and other opportunities to pay for college debt-free.

If you are a student at Tennessee State University, you can set up an appointment with Mr. Turner to discuss the process of financing your education debt-free by emailing him at mjturner@tnstate.edu.

Here is a handout created from a recent seminar Mr. Turner has given: TSU SCHOLARSHIP HANDOUT 2010

Show Me the Money! 2009

February 25, 2009

I am going to present two seminars this Spring 2009 semester of Show Me the Money.

Instead of  long, boring details, you can refer to the PowerPoint presentation given previously plus a Scholarship e-report, which I will be posting later, to learn how to start your search for scholarship money to go to school for little or no debt.

The two dates for my scholarship seminar are

Thurday, Feb. 26, 2-3 pm

Wed, March 18, 10-11 am

in the LRC 123B

Come learn about

The Money Wall in the Writing Center!

The Free E-Report Detailing How you Can Win the Scholarship Game!

After discussing some scholarship opportunities for about 5-10 minutes, the rest of the session will be a question-answer session, where I will answer your pressing questions.

Also, you can leave your questions in the comment section, and I’ll try to get to those during the presentation.

The PowerPoint Presentation

September 23, 2008

Here is the presentation I gave to students in April 2008.  The PowerPoint took me 12 hours to work on; this presentation represents about 12 years worth of research, including material from a book I’m writing.

When you click on Show Me the Money, choose read-only in order to view the Powerpoint.
