 TREA had 185 completed scholarship applications this year. We are awarded 29, $2000 scholarships this year, the highest amount and the highest number of scholarships, ever awarded by TREA. We regret that we couldn’t present the scholarships in person as we have in the past. It has been one of the highlights of the Conference. Thanks, again, to all businesses and individuals who contributed to the Scholarship Program.

2021 Scholarship Applications will be available in January. If you're interested in sponsoring a scholarship contact Bill Tarleton.
