Cathedral Prep AFJROTC cadet Calvin Ferry ’25 was awarded a four-year Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps scholarship and will be attending Penn State University in the fall.
The Navy ROTC scholarship is highly competitive. Applicants must meet a number of requirements to even be considered, such as earning SAT/ACT scores above the national average and achieving physical standards set forth by the U.S. Navy.
All Navy ROTC colleges provide the following benefits.
Full tuition
All mandatory undergraduate fees covered
Yearly stipend for textbooks and uniforms
Three summer training cruises – Cadets are paired with Naval officers in the fleet and spend part of their summer gaining on-the-job experience in various areas—including aboard a nuclear submarine, with aircraft carriers and aviation squadrons, or on warships operating at sea.
Congratulations to Calvin!
