Mutoli awarded scholarship from PLU

Shelton High School student Kaylin Mutoli received a President’s Scholar scholarship of $34,000 per year to attend Pacific Lutheran University.

The university announced Mutoli was part of a pool of more than 500 students, of which 133 President’s Scholars were selected. The university states the students awarded the scholarship “displayed exemplary qualities in leadership, service and academics, while also displaying a potential to enrich our campus community in the classroom and beyond.” This year’s President Scholars have a cumulative average weighted GPA of 4.10.

These students are invited to come to the campus this month to interview for the next tiers of the PLU scholarships, the $40,000-per-year Harstad Scholarship and the full-tuition Regent’s Scholarship.

Pacific Lutheran University is a small private university in Tacoma’s Parkland neighborhood.
