All persons living at the same address, who are directly related, are legal dependents of the applicants, or are foster children, define a household. If additional funding is needed beyond what the CAP can provide applicants will be directed to a community service club or will have the option to set up a payment plan with the CAP.

Scholarships are legally recoverable if paid and awarded on the basis of false information supplied by the applicant and will nullify your request for future scholarships. All applicants are treated equal – no applicant will be discriminated because of age, race, color, sex, national origin, or disability.
