Sydney Miller named to 2017 All-Arizona/USA Academic Team

2017 Jan 5

Springerville - Sydney Miller has been selected as one of 13 Northland Pioneer College to receive a tuition waiver from the Arizona Board of Regents to complete their bachelor's degree.

Miller is pursuing a AAS degree at NPC before transferring to NAU to get their degree. The tuition waiver is good for up to 60 credits at any of the three state public universities.

Team members will also receive scholarships from NPC and are automatically considered for additional All-USA Academic Team scholarships.

NPC nominees, along with over 60 other top scholars from the state's other community colleges, will be honored at a luncheon on Thursday, March 9, in Mesa. NPC can nominate two students from each campus and center location to the All-Arizona team. A student must have taken a class at or originating from that location to be considered for one of the two nominations. To be eligible for nomination, a student must have accumulative 3.5 or high grade point average, be working toward an associate degree, and demonstrate college or community volunteerism and leadership.

Arizona, for the past 22 years, has separately recognized the state's top two-year college students as a part of the All-USA Academic Team program, co-sponsored by the American Association of Community Colleges, Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society (PTK), Follet Higher Education Group, the Coca Cola Scholars Foundation and USA Today.
