While enrollment waned at many colleges during the pandemic, a recently developed Tabor College scholarship worth more than $100,000 for students who regularly attend Mennonite Brethren congregations has contributed to back-to-back record freshman classes. Tabor is welcoming 171 first-year students to campus this fall.

Tabor is entering its third recruiting cycle for the Tabor 20 Scholarship, which began in 2019. This fall there are 42 on-campus recipients.

Tabor is now seeking applicants for the next year’s class, offering another 20 students a scholarship value of $29,000 a year, or $116,000 over four years.

High school seniors interested in the scholarship can visit tabor.edu/tabor20 to apply. Applications will close Dec. 1.
