Scholarship Opportunity

The General Hugh Shelton Leadership Center is pleased to offer for the 8th year a major 4-year college scholarship. Each year one emerging student leader has been awarded essentially a full scholarship for all 4 years to NC State. Next year's winner could be from your school!!! The mission of this Center, housed at N.C.State University is to "inspire, educate, and develop values-based leaders who are committed to personal integrity, professional ethics and selfless service". We conduct scholarship programs, executive forums, and youth outreach programs. As a part of the scholarship program we have endowed the General Hugh Shelton National Student Leadership Scholarship. Essentially, we are trying to identify and reward America's most outstanding high school student leader. The type of student leaders you are producing are exactly the ones who may be qualified and interested in pursuing this scholarship, valued at $10,000 per year(and renewable), plus an annual $2,000 stipend for external leadership experiences such as study abroad.


The following website will provide a description of the scholarship,

the criteria and the application, which is due this year by Nov. 1.
