STEPHENVILLE, Texas \u2014 Tarleton State University has a guarantee for high school graduates \u2014 scholarships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beginning with the spring Class of 2022, seniors graduating in the 51-75 percentile, or second quarter, of their class and attending Tarleton full time will receive $500 annually regardless of ACT (American College Test) or SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) scores.

It aligns with the 123-year vision of Tarleton\u2019s founder to provide a high-quality, affordable education to students who otherwise might not have the chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have a social and economic responsibility to deepen our historic commitment to educational attainment and affordability,\u201d said President James Hurley. \u201cJohn Tarleton dreamed of an institution of opportunity. This is one more step to ensure that dream lives on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
