About the Program
The Central Alabama Community Organization for the Undergraduate Recruitment of School Educators, or COURSE Scholars Program, provides students in Lee County, Tallapoosa County, and Tallassee City schools with a pathway to enter Auburn University. This initiative draws on the strengths of existing programs including Auburn First, Path to the Plains, and Tallapoosa County’s Grow Your Own initiative to increase access and opportunity for students.
The COURSE Scholars Program supports students pursuing degrees in teaching and health promotion at Auburn University with the hope they will return to their hometowns after graduation and seek to enrich their communities.
