"I personally can not justify lying on applications, cheating, ect… but she is your friend. While the right thing to do is to rat her out, so the more qualified person gets the scholarship, I would never be able to do it to one of my friends. I bolded friends because there are people that I know, that if they cheated, I’d report them, but my friends, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it.

Thankfully, I’ve never had to really deal with a situation like this."

My friends, unfortunately, are people just like everyone else – they are not above cheating, lying, etc. If they cheated, I would report them. If they were truly my friends, they wouldn’t do it in the first place.
