The qualifications for this scholarship are that the cadet must be at the top 10% of their JROTC class and the top 25% academically in their respective high school. As a result of winning the state contest, c/CPT Schaefer was awarded a state medallion and two scholarships (one from the Mecklenburg Chapter and the other from NC), which collectively makes $1,050 in check. Winning the contest will also allow the cadet to advance to the National competition where the reward is a $10,000 check. “This opportunity is something any cadet should strive for. I highly recommend any rising juniors to start looking into the application process now to get better preparation for the contest.” -c/CPT Schaefer.
