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 the military service commitment and provide an opportunity to further education goals for military police members and families.
“This scholarship allows us to continue honoring the service of military police and their families,” stated Eric Ryan, Marine Corps veteran and senior director of Military Operations at University of Phoenix. “Scholarships such as this offer significant opportunity and hope to individuals seeking a pathway to higher education, we are pleased to once again partner with the MPRA to recognize the unique service and commitment 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.
