The University of Pikeville (UPIKE) recently joined the list of just two American colleges that recognize League of Legends as a varsity sport, the first being Robert Morris University in Chicago.
A private liberal arts university from Kentucky, UPIKE will also start offering eSports scholarships to qualifying League of Legends players and prospective students this fall, reports WYMT. There are 20 scholarships available.
Just like other athletic scholarships, students eligible for the eSports scholarship will need to maintain a specific GPA, and participate in practice sessions.
