EVERYONE! Students, faculty, staff, community members - ALL are welcome to participate in Run the World.
Any current Kent State student is eligible to win a RTW scholarship, regardless of their campus, college, major, or degree level.
No! Run the World is design to allow everyone the opportunity to receive an education abroad scholarship!
No! There is no required essay, and no minimum GPA requirement to win a scholarship. Just sign up for an individual race (Kent or Stark) or sign up for the Race Series to have 3 opportunities to win a scholarship.
You will still be eligible for scholarships! Scholarship recipients are randomly selected from the students who are registered for the race, whether they run on race day or not. Students who sign up for the individual race are eligible for the scholarships awarded at that event. Students who sign up for the Race Series are entered into the scholarship drawing for each race, as well as a Race Series scholarship raffle.
No! You can utilize the scholarship any time before you graduate. As long as you maintain status as a Kent State student, the scholarship will be waiting for you to use it! Check out Kent State's MANY Education Abroad opportunities.
