Dreyer Awarded Centennial Honors Scholarship
November 14, 2017
MACOMB, IL – High school senior Alexis Dreyer, of Arnold, MO, has been selected for Western Illinois University's Centennial Honors Scholarship, which awards $10,000 per year to academically high-achieving students.
High school students with an ACT score of 30 or higher (or SAT equivalent of 1390), and a grade point average of 3.0 or higher, are eligible for the scholarship.
Dryer plans on majoring in biochemistry.
"I chose to attend Western as I liked the feel of the campus and it offers the competitive education I desire," said Dryer. "The opportunity to contribute to the University as a member of the Leatherneck's women's swim team was a big deciding factor."
In high school, Dreyer ran varsity cross-country for four years, and was a member of National Honor Society, the German Club, the Letterman's Club and the Future Business Leaders of America.
For more information about the Centennial Honors Scholarship, contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at (309) 298-3100, or email admissions@wiu.edu.
