Scholars
GOLDWATER SCHOLARSHIP
The Barry M. Goldwater scholarship provides up to $15,000 for two years of study by Congress for science, math, and engineering students.
K-State ranks first in the nation among 500 state universities in producing Goldwater winners since the program began in 1989. Only Princeton and Harvard have produced more winners.
