Students receive a tuition, fees and book stipend scholarship, estimated at $19,000, once they are admitted into the Teacher Education program at the beginning of their junior year at WSU.

Eight high school seniors from Kansas and Texas competed for the Klose Scholarship. Klose Scholars Day provided students with the opportunity to interview with College of Applied Studies faculty and current Klose Scholars, present a mini-lesson and participate in a group activity. Students also submitted an application that included two essays.
