Aside from the many advantages students mention for schooling through Texas Tech K-12
\n \u2014 scheduling freedom, practicing time-management skills and learning self-motivation,
\n among others \u2014 one of the additional perks is access to scholarships for those who
\n choose to continue on to college at Texas Tech University<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Five students who made that choice applied and earned the competitive scholarship<\/a> offered by Texas Tech K-12 to its graduates, each receiving $1,000 per semester.
\n Another 10 returning Red Raiders applied and received the monetary assistance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Of the five Texas Tech K-12 graduates coming to campus for their first year, four
\n are from various schools in Brazil and one is from Lubbock.<\/p>\n

Stella Bueno Leoni is from Indaiatuba, S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil. She earned concurrent diplomas
\n through Escola do Parque Ecol\u00f3gico\/Objetivo Indaiatuba while completing the Texas
\n Tech K-12 graduation requirements. She will be attending Texas Tech this fall with
\n an expected major of computer engineering<\/a> in the Edward E. Whitacre Jr. College of Engineering<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cTexas Tech K-12 helped me become more independent and prepared me for the academic
\n challenges of studying in the United States,\u201d Leoni said. \u201cEven after being accepted
\n to 11 universities abroad, I chose Texas Tech because of the welcoming community,
\n the strong engineering opportunities and the connection I had already built with the
\n university through the K-12 program.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"JuliaJuliana Neme will be heading to Texas Tech for college, scholarship in hand.<\/p>\n

Juliana Neme is from Medianeira, Paran\u00e1, Brazil. She graduated from CAESP Internacional
\n Medianeira with her concurrent diplomas.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause I was taking economics classes in the K-12 program, I discovered my passion
\n for finance and business,\u201d Neme said. \u201cI chose Texas Tech because of the great professors
\n and the strong reputation of the Jerry S. Rawls College of Business<\/a>. I\u2019ll be majoring in finance<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
