The Military College of South Carolina Corps of Cadets Annual Scholarship Book 2020-21 The Citadel: The Military College of South Carolina Corps of Cadets Annual Scholarship Book 2020-21 To our donors, prospective cadets, and other members of The Citadel family: The scholarship program at The Citadel is designed to attract outstanding high school graduates to the College, reward undergraduate academic excellence, and help those students who desire financial assistance to complete their college education. Students are considered for scholarships in one of two ways. All incoming freshmen are automatically considered based upon the information provided on their application for admissions. Those received by November 15 are given priority in the awarding process. Returning students are required to complete a scholarship application by March 15th to be considered for scholarship funds for the following academic year. Most freshman scholarship recipients will be notified of their awards by April 30th and upperclass cadets before June 30th. The Scholarship Committee gives all scholarship applicants careful consideration. Many scholarships contain restrictions as stipulated in deeds of trust. The Citadel matches the most qualified candidates to such restrictions. Students are evaluated and ranked objectively on the basis of class standing, grade point ratio, ACT or SAT scores, personal achievement, and leadership potential. Since many scholarships specify “need” as a condition of the award, it is recommended that all applicants complete a confidential Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year by October 1. In addition to scholarships coordinated through The Citadel, many opportunities exist for scholarships outside of The Citadel. Numerous corporations, employers, professional organizations, foundations, local civic organizations, churches, and high schools make scholarships available to Citadel cadets. Students should consult high school counselors, employers, civil leaders, public officials, and local libraries for information on scholarship opportunities. There is also a scholarship search called FASTweb that is linked to The Citadel Financial Aid Office’s web page. This free service matches over 400,000 scholarships listed in its database to biographic information supplied by the user. To all of the donors that make the scholarships available to our students, Thank You. To all of our prospective students, an education that offers Honor, Leadership, and Pride is waiting at the end of the Long Gray Line. Please use this scholarship information to join in. Sincerely Hank Fuller, Director The Citadel Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships Citadel Scholars’ Scholarships (in care of The Citadel Foundation) The Joseph D. Aiken Scholarships The Class of 1939 Endowed Citadel Scholars The Class of 1944 Endowed Citadel Scholars The Class of 1955 Citadel Scholar Scholarship The Class of 1980 Endowed Citadel Scholars The Groves Citadel Scholarship The Edwin P.

THE 1964 COMPANY "N" SCHOLARSHIP The 1964 Company "N" Scholarship was established in 1997 by Maj. (Ret.) Edwin Stone III, Citadel Class of 1964, and other Company "N” classmates. In addition to the traditionally high standards of The Citadel, the first consideration for a recipient will be a cadet from Company “N” whose family has lost the financial support of their major breadwinner through death or other means to a degree that would impair the ability of the cadet to continue at The Citadel. Second- and third-consideration recipients shall be based on the terms of the deed of trust. The first award was made in 2000. THE WILLIAM F. ABERNETHY SCHOLARSHIP The William F.

The scholarship will not exceed one- half of the student's current annual catalog costs.

This award is renewable based on the recipient maintaining at least a cumulative 2.50 grade point ratio. The first award was made in fall 1990. THE JOE E. ADAMS, SR., MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP The Joe E. Adams, Sr., Memorial Scholarship was initiated in 1978 as the result of a contribution from his son, Joe E. Adams, Jr., Citadel Class of 1955. The fund is named in memory of Joe E.

AIKEN SCHOLARSHIP The Joseph D. Aiken Scholarship was initiated in 1956 as the result of a bequest from the estate of Joseph D. Aiken, a grateful member of the Charleston community. Although the original purpose of the Joseph D. Aiken Scholarship Fund included a number of possible applications of his generous bequest, its primary applications have been to acquire properties contiguous to The Citadel and to award scholarships. The Joseph D. Aiken Scholarship is intended to cover the catalog cost for four years. First preference shall be given to students from Connecticut and Rhode Island, then other New England states. Any remaining funds may be expended as partial scholarships first to New England students then to others as determined most beneficial to all. The first award was made in 1957.
