Scholarships
Are You Preparing for Ministry as a Military Chaplain?
One way the Military Chaplains Association “speaks with a professional voice” is through support for training the next generation of chaplains. Each year, we provide financial assistance to several seminary students who are currently serving as chaplain candidates in the Air Force, Army, or Navy.
The MCA Chaplain Candidate Scholarship program was established in 1992. Since then, we have helped sixty-five chaplain candidates. Funds to support our annual scholarship awards come from donations by individuals, Chapel Funds, Chiefs of Chaplains Funds, and contributions made through the Combined Federal Campaign.
Eligibility requirements are:
- Full time enrollment in an accredited seminary.
- Ecclesiastical endorsement for future ministry as a military chaplain.
- Appointment and active service as a “Chaplain Candidate” in one of the Armed Services.
- Completion of the MCA Chaplain Candidate Scholarship application form and submission of all requirements.
We regret to advise that our 2011-2012 program has been delayed due to funding issues. However, we strongly encourage inquiries to the Church, State, and Industry Foundation.
