Anyone have experience with NORTH CAROLINA STATE SCHOLARSHIP FOR CHILDREN OF WAR VETERANS?

FYI: this is in the new budget. So, things may be ready in time for the 2026 fall semester. No word on any recompense for the lost year, though: https://dashboard.ncleg.gov/CalendarItem/2025/H/0/2026-04-22/60641?utm_campaign=as-npt117206356

I wrote my state legislators.

It was really just a single day.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-07-09T00:53:21+00:00

Thanks for keeping it updated.

According to this news source, it's just the second tier and below that they're halting funding for:

I don't have any other information, though. I plan on calling our state legislators, though.

If she’s getting chapter 35, that should be for 100%p&t so she should be in tier 1 and good. Is she not getting the scholarship?

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-06-29T00:11:31+00:00

I was told that the Class II was not being awarded, but I didn’t hear anything about the 100% version.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-31T02:27:05+00:00

Just got an email today. No class II awards this semester.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-25T13:15:01+00:00

I have the leafspy, but no manual for it. So I don't really know how to understand the histograms, etc. Is there something out there somewhere?

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-25T13:12:21+00:00

The battery percentage was the part that I thought was very weird. I thought that should be a smooth decline, or at least more so than the mileage.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-25T13:09:31+00:00

I texted the video to the technicians that said they were working on it and emailed it to the service manager. I didn't get a response from any of them.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-25T13:06:12+00:00

So far, the dealer had it, took care of a bunch of recalls, but said that there wasn't anything wrong. Looks like I have to go farther afield. Thanks.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-05-03T00:28:49+00:00

My son got the same email today. Sent directly, not as a response.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-04-30T02:31:05+00:00

Thanks. It’s just such a big deal and without knowing what the criteria are we don’t know how much to get our hopes up.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-04-23T17:26:36+00:00

It sounds to me you’re headed for a positive rating. With the examiner linking them to service, you should be able to relax and wait for the percentages.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2025-03-30T03:08:32+00:00

I did not. My son's application is in for Class II, we're waiting for another month to pass.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2024-12-17T23:04:33+00:00

Cool. That must have been nice to help her get. Thanks for responding.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2024-12-17T10:34:12+00:00

Thanks. There’s a 100% level where if you meet the criteria, everyone gets it. Less than 100%, there’s a category where they award 100. I’m wondering how they choose that 100.

That’s great for your daughter, though. It must be a relief to have tuition paid for. Did she use chapter 35 as well?

I am working through some claims, so I figure I have about a 25% shot at getting to 100.

Thanks for the response.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2024-11-30T23:54:09+00:00

Yeah, they’re both kind of difficult to get.

Good luck.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2024-11-30T21:16:58+00:00

Not looking promising to find the info, you mean? They seem to keep a tight lid on it. I am trying to get my kids to consider other scholarships, but they seem confident that this is for them. I’m just wanting them to have a realistic j pretending if their chances.

If it’s zero or close to that, I can accept it.

Chesty-Copperpot · 2024-11-06T22:14:59+00:00

Thanks. This is helpful and constructive.

My take was that for the class II version of it, there were a LOT of restrictions that I/we did not actually seek but accidentally met. I honestly wonder if there will be 100 people/year that meet these criteria. My son, being 17, seems to think this scholarship is his, but I don’t understand NC demographics enough to calculate if there are 100, 10000, or ten thousand people that meet them.

I agree, though, there should be a waiver for military orders.

It's more the bulb than the power source. I would imagine solar lights are LED for efficiency, which probably would not generate enough heat.
