<p>About 60 CGA Scholars were chosen last year, and about the same will be offered this year.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The typical prep school candidate has lots of demonstrated leadership and/or leadership potential, strong ECs, excellent physical fitness, but needs some help in the academic department, just a little extra schooling to ensure they are able to handle the rigorous academic load that will come in their 4/c year. </p>
<p>CGA Scholars are chosen from the regular applicant pool - you do not apply separately for the program. The admissions department chooses which academy candidates will get full appointments, which candidates will get CGA Scholarships (thus deferring their appointment for a year), and which candidates will get neither.</p>
<p>Remember, if you do not get an appointment, nor chosen for the CGAS program, you are free to enroll in college, take “swab-level” classes (and excel in them!) and re-apply the following year, thus enrolling yourself in a “self-prep” program. </p>
