The Knoxville Panther Scholarship Foundation is currently accepting applications for post-secondary scholarships. Knoxville graduates who are in their second, third or fourth year of post-secondary education are eligible to apply. Foundation President Kurt Froyen says they offer scholarships for all areas of study.

“We have several scholarships that are given for specific majors. Once they tell us which major they’re pursuing, they automatically become eligible for those particular scholarships. In addition, we also have students fill out a goals statement, student involvement statement, work experience and volunteer activities. All of those various topics that we fill out will make them eligible for scholarships in those particular areas.”

Froyen adds that every student who applies will receive a scholarship, and that students must apply before March 1st. The Knoxville Scholarship Foundation began in 2003, and has awarded over $1 million in scholarships since its inception. Learn more about the foundation and find a link to apply here.
