A panel of school officials and representatives of local employers interviews finalists about their personal and career goals, accomplishments, and extracurricular activities. This panel will select winners by consensus vote. Alternatives may be selected at the discretion of the school to account for scholarships that are offered but not accepted. Scholarships will be awarded bi-annually. They are not transferable nor can they be exchanged for cash.
Scholarships are good for up to twelve months after the award date.
Students attending SCT may also, if eligible, receive funds to meet educational costs from Veterans Administration, Social Security, Bureau of Indian Affairs, Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, Workman's Compensation, and other organizations providing scholarships and grants. Please contact the Recruitment Department regarding these funding sources. Schools associated with CTF will be listed in their Guide to Careers in America catalog that will be distributed to every high school in the country. High school students can contact their high school counselors for more information on this program. For those independent students who do not qualify for financial aid or do not wish to apply for educational loans or other educational subsidies, SCT offers quarterly and other tuition payment plans to finance the student's educational costs.
