The Texas Tech University yearly offers Terry Scholarship for U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the United States. The scholarship will cover cost of attendance at TTU, including tuition, fees, books, on-campus room and board and miscellaneous expenses.
Description

In 1986, the Terry family decided to help young people to help themselves by setting up an educational foundation.
