The Sam Johnson Chapter provides a $2,000 college scholarship to each of the outstanding AFJROTC graduates from the eleven high schools in our area which offer AFJROTC programs, and who intend to enroll in ROTC in college.

One graduate from each of the twelve high schools is selected by their AFJROTC instructors to receive a $2,000 scholarship. Each student is then asked to submit an application which is judged by a panel of Sam Johnson Chapter members for selection for an additional $10,000 scholarship.
