Captain Anthony G. Prior Scholarship

The Captain Anthony G. Prior Scholarship was initiated as the result of contributions from Mr. and Mrs. Carl Prior and friends. The fund is named in memory of Captain Anthony G. Prior, The Citadel Class of 1964, who gave his life in defense of his country in Vietnam in 1968. Scholarships are available to a needy cadet who is a C-average student and has a strong desire for a military career. Cadets must possess attributes in accord with the high standards of The Citadel. Preference is given to cadets from the northeastern part of the United States. The first award was made in 1970.
