four years to outstanding North Carolina high school seniors. Recipients
must be legal residents of North Carolina and citizens of the United States.
Upon acceptance of the scholarship, students agree to teach for four years
following graduation from college in one of North Carolina’s public, charter, or
government schools. If the recipient cannot repay the scholarship through
service, the loan is repaid to the State with 10 percent interest. Some
campuses provide additional scholarship funds to Teaching Fellows. At ECSU
Viking Fellows is truly a full scholarship. Meet the Viking Fellows . . .The ECSU School of Education and Psychology is very proud to announce the Viking Fellows class of 2011. They are an amazing group of students who are destined to become great teachers.
