The Texas State Troopers Association (TSTA) is proud to announce the recipients of its 2025 Scholarship Program.
While the organization originally planned to award ten scholarships, the overwhelming number of highly qualified applicants prompted the TSTA board to expand the program.
This year, 25 students will each receive a $500 scholarship to support their higher education goals.
“We were genuinely inspired by the caliber of the applications we received this year,” said Rohnnie Shaw, Executive Director of TSTA. “These young people aren’t just excellent students—they are leaders, volunteers, and role models in their communities. We felt it was important to go beyond our original plan and reward as many deserving applicants as possible.”
The TSTA Scholarship Program is open to students sponsored by TSTA members who are entering or currently enrolled in an accredited college. The award is funded by the membership dues and donations sent to TSTA and helps support the educational dreams of families in the DPS community.
