Scholarships
All qualified cadets attending JCAP are eligible for a $2,400 scholarship, which carries no military obligation and may be used in conjunction with other scholarships. If a Corps Scholarship is awarded to a student who is not a resident of Texas, the recipient may qualify for in-state tuition.
Dates and Schedule
JCAP is offered once during the fall and spring semesters. Our next program will take place October 29 - 30, 2010.
