Continuing education is a priority for many Go To Nations field missionaries and their families; however, the cost and availability of undergraduate programs to children of field missionaries can prove to be a challenge. We are very pleased to announce that Go To Nations has been recognized as a "Liberty-approved" agency for the "M.K. Scholarship" for undergraduate students of field missionaries.
The Missionary Scholarship is a full or partial tuition scholarship per academic year (less other federal, state, and Liberty institutional gift assistance; room, board, and fees not included) disbursed over four consecutive years of a bachelor’s degree. Award amounts are determined after considering the applicant's academic merit, financial need, questionnaire responses, and essay response. Liberty students must complete this application prior to initial enrollment and meet all eligibility criteria to qualify for each additional year. The priority deadline to apply for this scholarship is February 28th.
