Scholarships
Centurions Leadership Program is committed to assisting participants who require financial assistance to pay program tuition. Financial need is not a consideration when selecting program participants. Two types of scholarships are available:

A general scholarship is available to participants who work for nonprofit organizations, governmental units, or small businesses; or whose employers do not pay tuition. The number of scholarships awarded varies by year. The scholarships cover up to 50 percent of tuition and are based on need.

The Alumni Foundation Scholarship is available to small business owners and entrepreneurs. Up to two scholarships (one per class) are awarded annually. The scholarship covers 50 percent of tuition.
