UK introduces scholarship program to boost college attainment

The University of Kentucky is launching a new scholarship initiative to help more students go to college.

UK said the program, called 2020 Scholars, will cost $2.7 million in the 2007-08 school year and will grow to $5.5 million by the time it is fully implemented in 2011. About 1,500 students are expected to receive scholarships this fall.

New scholarships included in the program are:
• Trustees Scholars – This is designed to increase the number of students transferring to UK from the states community and technical colleges. The program will offer students who earn associates degrees and 3.5 GPAs the opportunity to transfer to UK and continue to pay Kentucky Community and Technical College System tuition rates for two years.
