　　Truman provides countless opportunities for student involvement, on­campus activities and athletics. The town of Kirksville has a feeling of home away from home. You can attend Truman for $11,540(including room and board) if you live in the state. In addition, 94 percent of freshmen are awarded scholarships, and 97 percent receive some financial aid.
