C. Tucker Weston Citadel Scholar Scholarship

The C. Tucker Weston Citadel Scholar Scholarship fund was created by the Board of Directors of The Citadel Foundation in honor of Dr. Christian Tucker Weston, Class of 1939, a “founding father” of the original Citadel Development Foundation. As part of the prestigious Citadel Scholars Program, the purpose of the named, endowed fund is to enable The Citadel to recruit to the Corps top-ranked academic students who aim to excel scholastically while preparing for a lifetime of leadership. Each Citadel Scholar receives a four-year, full-tuition award that includes all uniform and book expenses. Selection for the college’s most comprehensive and competitive scholarship program is based upon merit. Prospective freshman candidates will be invited to campus for a scholarship competition, including an interview with the Faculty Scholarship Committee. The scholarship is renewable for four years as long as the cadet continues to meet the eligibility requirements.
