MSU to host 2013 Governor's Scholars

Aug. 21, 2012 —

Morehead State University has been awarded a three-year contract to be a host campus for the Kentucky Governor's Scholars Program.

"We are elated to have the Governor’s Scholars Program back at Morehead State,” said President Wayne D. Andrews. “We are excited about having several hundred of Kentucky's top high school students on our campus next summer for this prestigious activity.”

MSU hosted GSP from 2006-09 with more than 1,200 students attending the program.

“The GSP leadership knows that we are committed to providing outstanding staff and facility support and to sharing our famous Morehead hospitality."

The Governor’s Scholars Program is a five-week, residential summer program for outstanding Kentucky students completing their junior year in high school. Established in 1983, the program provides academic and personal growth in a challenging, nontraditional environment that balances a strong liberal arts program with a full co-curricular and residential life experience.

Students must complete an application and compete with others from across the state. Those selected attend the program free of charge. Additional information is available online at www.kygsp.org.

Other host campuses will be Murray State University and Bellarmine University in Louisville.
