The purpose of the Marine Corps Reserve Association Education Trust is to support educational programs for the benefit of the Marine Corps Junior ROTC students in the form of college scholarships to highly qualified graduating seniors, as well as the posting of educational material in the field of history especially as related to national security through such donations as may be received by this trust, all within the limitations of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. HELP FUND OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM Click here for details about the Donor Program THE COVID-19 SHUTDOWN EFFECTS STILL SHOW The 2021 academic year saw the Marine Corps Reserve Association Education Trust scholarship program shutdown due to the effects of COVID-19 throughout the nation. The shutdown of so much of America had a severe detrimental effect on the ability of the Trust to obtain donation for the scholarship program. Two years ago the Trust did not receive sufficient donations to fund the scholarships ordinarily offered. Last year the Trust made significant progress in obtaining donations to fund scholarships for the coming year, however the Board of Trustees noticed a significant drop in the academic performance of students to include poor grades and poor SAT/ACT scores. It was quite obvious that remote learning through Zoom and other remote techniques simply did not produce the same level of learning obtained by the face-to-face techniques of in-person classroom activities. Last year only two applicants met the minimum requirements for our scholarships. The effects of the COVID shutdown continues to be evident in the performance of students. Only six students applied in a timely and proper manner for the scholarships being offered to students during the 2022-2023 academic year. The scholarship program will be accepting applications next year for the 2023-2024 academic year. Applications must be submitted through the Internet. For information about the scholarship application process, select - Scholarship Information here or from the menu on the left side of the page. Marine Corps Junior ROTC students are encouraged to apply for the 2023-2024 academic year. Please see your Marine Military Instructor for details.
