Fort Worth students graduating in the top quarter of their senior class will earn automatic admission to Tarleton State University.
On Tuesday, Tarleton State University and Fort Worth ISD agreed to a multi-million dollar pact that will award annual scholarships and guaranteed admission to FWISD seniors in the top 25% of their graduating classes starting next year.
The state university, based in Stephenville, will also select one Fort Worth senior each year to receive a $10,000 scholarship that’s renewable for up to four years.
