In May 2009, non-profit, online Western Governors University launched a competitive scholarship program aimed at helping laid-off workers return to college to complete bachelor’s or post-baccalaureate degrees. Nearly 150 students have been awarded $750,000 in scholarships as part of the Economic Turnaround Scholarship Program http://www.wgu.edu/turnaround , and today, the online university announced that it is extending the program into 2011. The need-based program provides up to $1,250 per six-month term for up to four terms to new WGU students who have lost their jobs in the past 18 months.
