Share

Western Illinois University is offering a free college education to some low income students in the state. The school yesterday said applications for The Western Way scholarship program are now available. The scholarship covers fees and tuition for students from families who make less than 81 thousand-dollars a year, and have zero assets. Students will also have to have at least a three-point-oh GPA. The scholarships do not cover housing and dining, books and supplies, course fees, study abroad, internship, or other student expenses. Western says the scholarships are first-come, first-served.
