Auburn freshman awarded South Carolina License to Learn Scholarship
The Palmetto Auburn Club of South Carolina recently completed efforts to create the state’s first Auburn University license plate, which is now available from the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles. In South Carolina, up to 94 percent of the fee from the sale of each tag goes to the South Carolina License to Learn Scholarship Endowment Fund, a program that raises funds for freshman scholarships. Proceeds from South Carolina tag sales will provide scholarships for students specifically from that state.
Auburn student Davis Myers of Spartanburg, S.C., is the first recipient of the scholarship from the state’s tag sales. She is a freshman in the College of Human Sciences and is studying hotel and restaurant management.
The first 100 tag numbers were reserved by the Palmetto Auburn Club, and one may be obtained through them for a one-time $100 contribution to its scholarship fund. Numbers greater than 100 will be assigned by the South Carolina DMV. The cost is $70 every two years, plus regular South Carolina license fees, which are determined by the DMV.
