2015 AUSA Scholarship Recipients – AUSA Carlisle Barracks & Cumberland Valley Chapter

Each year the Carlisle Barracks and Cumberland Valley Chapter awards scholarships to high school seniors or undergraduate freshman accepted in a college or university four year program. The applicants are evaluated on their leadership experience and activities, academic achievements, and future potential. After evaluating the applications and conducting an in-depth discussion of the applicants’ qualifications, the Scholarship Panel members recommended and the Board approved six applicants to receive scholarships.

The top scholarship of $1000 was awarded to Nicholas A. Baxter, a freshman at Clemson University.
