With an average senior class of less than 70 scholars, City University School of Liberal Arts has received more than $17 million in academic scholarships over a four-year period—annually taking in at least $3 million in scholarships per class and with at least one scholar earning the recognition of the Million Dollar Scholar.

City University supports many of Tennessee’s colleges and universities, but scholars also receive offers from New York University, Wabash, Amherst, St. Louis University, Boston University, Ithaca College, University of California, Morehouse, Spelman and others.

With only 70 members in the Class of 2011, City University scholars received more than $7 million in academic scholarships.  In addition to the support of the Tennessee schools that believe in the scholars’ commitment to academic achievement, the Class of 2011 garnered scholarships and acceptance letters to colleges and universities all over the United States.

Early in the academic year, one amazing scholar set her mind on the opportunity to reach the furthest point in her search for a college that best fit her current abilities and future aspirations.  Lanell Williams applied to more than 50 colleges and universities across the country and received more than $3 million dollars in scholarships to aid in making her decision of which school to attend.  With so many options and opportunities in front of her, Williams decided to attend Wesleyan University.

This work is possible because City University School of Liberal Arts has an academically rigorous learning environment that is supportive of all scholars and their pursuits of post-secondary education. Through this approach, scholars are provided opportunities that they may have been previously denied. City University’s college preparatory program provides scholars full access to Dual Enrollment courses on the campus of Christian Brothers University, coupled with a curriculum that enables and empowers them with the abilities to achieve success in any environment.
