Recipients can pursue bachelor’s or master’s degree at University of Phoenix
Together with the Military Police Regimental Association (MPRA), the University of Phoenix is offering one full-tuition scholarship for a bachelor’s degree or master’s degree program for standard MPRA members or immediate family members of a standard MPRA member.
Military members and families may encounter challenges of time, commitments, and circumstance to reaching their academic and career goals. The University of Phoenix Military Police Regimental Association Scholarship is intended to recognize military service commitment and provide an opportunity to further education goals for military police members and families.
“University of Phoenix is pleased to continue honoring the service of military police and their families through this scholarship opportunity,” stated Eric Ryan, Marine Corps veteran and senior director of Military Operations at University of Phoenix. “Initiatives such as this provide opportunity and hope to those seeking a pathway to higher education, and we are pleased to once again work with the MPRA to recognize the outstanding service of our military police.”
Together with its members, the MPRA works to provide a variety of services and assistance to Military Police leaders, soldiers and their families around the world.
“The sacrifices inherent in military service pose unique challenges for both service members and their families, and this scholarship remains a vital opportunity provided by the University of Phoenix for our Military Police Leaders, Soldiers, and their families to pursue their educational ambitions," shares Rick Harne, MPRA Executive Director. "Access to funding continues to be a significant hurdle for many, and this gracious contribution helps dismantle that barrier. The scholarship demonstrates our shared commitment to empowering military communities through education."
