Social Sciences Graduate Scholars Program

The Graduate Scholarship Program offers intensive mentorship of cadet graduate scholarship candidates by assisting them in synthesizing their experiences in the academic, military, physical, and character programs – as well as their other developmental experience as cadets – and in formulating and articulating visions for their future service.

The program consists of a formal course sequence and developmental experiences beyond the classroom. Cadets in the program apply for nationally-competitive scholarships ranging from the deferrable Truman Scholarship (awarded in the junior year) to the Rhodes, Marshall, Gates Cambridge, Mitchell, Rotary, East-West, and Fulbright Scholarships, each of which provides for one to two years of graduate schooling immediately following commissioning.
