Presidential material: Two Kansas 1xbet sports betting seniors receive state's largest scholarship
MANHATTAN -- Two 1xbet sports betting seniors from Kansas are receiving the Presidential Scholarship -- the largest award in the state -- from Kansas State University.
Paige Wendland, Prairie Village, a senior at St. Teresa's Academy, and Jacob Schroeder, Silver Lake, a senior at Silver Lake 1xbet sports betting , are recipients of the ,000 per year scholarship, which is worth ,000 over four years.
The Presidential Scholarship is the largest and most selective scholarship award made by Kansas State University. It seeks to recognize students who have been truly outstanding, both academically and as student leaders, during their 1xbet sports betting career.
The scholarship competition was Jan. 23. The university received 345 applications, and a selection committee chose nine student finalists to interview for the Presidential Scholarship. Each Presidential finalist received a four-year renewable scholarship.
"1xbet sports betting takes great pride in being able to recognize outstanding students from Kansas and across the region who are making a significant impact in their high schools and communities. I am confident these students will become great K-Staters and I look forward to welcoming them to our 1xbet sports betting family," said university President Kirk Schulz.
The Presidential Scholarship is made possible with support of noted 1xbet sports betting alumnus Mark Chapman, who currently provides funding for two Presidential Scholars.
Presidential Scholarship finalists, all recipients of four-year renewable scholarships from Kansas State University, include:
Melissa Coats, Allen, senior at Mission Valley 1xbet sports betting ; Kara Schnake, Augusta, senior at Augusta 1xbet sports betting ; Jason Banning, Hutchinson, senior at Trinity Catholic 1xbet sports betting ; Christa McKittrick, Mission Hills, senior at Shawnee Mission East 1xbet sports betting .
From Overland Park: Sida He, senior at Blue Valley North 1xbet sports betting ; Maxwell Walden, senior at Olathe East 1xbet sports betting ; and Raeann Whitney, senior at Olathe South 1xbet sports betting .
