SUMTER - Students from Manning, Alcolu, Summerton and Turbeville are among those who received a merit-based scholarship from the University of South Carolina Sumter for the 2014-15 academic year. They include T. Barton Davis of Alcolu; Meredith Coker, Hailey Patrick and Austin Seitz, all of Manning; Alyson Shelton of Summerton; and Devyn Youngblood of Turbeville.
More than 100 USC Sumter students will be recognized as scholarship recipients on Friday at a luncheon in their honor. USC Sumter provides more than $80,000 in annual and endowed scholarships for students. The University recognizes those students who have distinguished themselves academically and as a result are the recipients of merit scholarships. USC Sumter also acknowledges the generous philanthropy of those individuals and organizations that make the merit-based scholarship awards possible.
