Kerr Family Scholarship

The Kerr family Scholarship was initiated in 2003 by James J. Kerr, Sr., The Citadel Class of 1965. The scholarship is available to a cadet of the Catholic faith from Charleston County, South Carolina, with preference given to a cadet who is a business administration major with average grades or above, who displays leadership in extracurricular activities (including athletics), and who has financial need. The selection may be broadened to include Berkeley and Dorchester Counties in South Carolina, should a Charleston County candidate not be available in a given year. Whenever possible, additional preference shall be given to a cadet who is the child or sibling of a Citadel graduate. The first award was made in 2006.
