STEPHENVILLE — Tarleton State University students seeking a bachelor’s degree will now have the opportunity to earn a 125 Guarantee award of $1,000 by completing all degree requirements within four years from their first day of college enrollment.
The new award is part of Tarleton State’s 125 Years of Excellence celebration.
“Access, opportunity and affordability are central to our mission,” said Tarleton State President Dr. James Hurley. “Introducing the 125 Guarantee this year is fitting as we celebrate the remarkable history and traditions of our university.”
Qualified December 2024 graduates are set to be the first recipients.
First-time freshmen, transfers and readmits will all be considered. To qualify, a student must provide official documentation of their high school (or equivalent) completion date in their first semester, if not already submitted during the application process. Immediate enrollment after high school is not required.
The four-year time frame starts on the first day of college enrollment, after high school graduation, at Tarleton State or another college or university.
To earn a 125 Guarantee award, students must be seeking their first bachelor’s degree, and once they start, complete at least 30 hours within each 12-month period while meeting all requirements for the bachelor’s degree by the end of their fourth year.
The 12-month period includes fall, spring and summer courses.
Once a student has their bachelor’s degree conferred and Tarleton State has verified that they meet all requirements for eligibility, the student will receive a 125 Guarantee award of $1,000.
