The President of OLLU and Staff (including Local Military Leaders) announced the “OLLU Salutes Our Military” Scholarship Program in front of the Main Building at OLLU at 411 S.W. 24th St. in San Antonio, recently.

At this event, they thanked our men and women in uniform! Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) recognizes the commitment, responsibility and sacrifices made by our military men and women w/spouses. Indeed, their dedication to preserving and defending our nation’s freedom is unparalleled.

In an effort to thank and support these great men and women, OLLU has launched a program to offer active- duty military scholarships that fully cover the difference between the government tuition assistance amount of $250 per semester hour and the University’s standard tuition rate per semester hour ( Active duty personnel will receive $378 per credit hour by OLLU, which means he or she will not have to pay tuition to attend OLLU).

This equates to a tuition-free bachelor’s or master’s degree, of their choosing, from OLLU – a local, state and nationally recognized private university that has been continuously accredited for 85 years.

In addition, OLLU is offering benefits to the wonderful spouses that serve as key members within military families. Specifically, the OLLU program includes scholarships to spouses that equate to a tuition rate of only $250 per semester hour.

These scholarships can be used for traditional, weekday, weekend and/or online classes – whatever fits into the complex military lifestyle! To learn more, visit www.ollusa.edu <http://www.ollusa.edu/
