The 2015-2016 academic year is the first one in which qualified students are provided the opportunity to be given awards for achievement on the three online exams (NCEE, NRCE, NLVE).

These awards are offered to students who received a gold medal on at least two of the three online exams within one academic season. The awards are divided into age-appropriate groups - i.e. one-third of the awards will be given to students in the 8th grade and below, one-third will be given to students in the 9th and 10th grades, and one-third will be given to students in the 11th and 12th grades.

The awards are comprised of a mix of cash and books/materials. A total of six (2 per age category) awards in the amount of $500 will be available. A total of nine (3 per age category) awards in the amount of $250 to purchase TMRC materials will be available.

• Applicants MUST earn a gold medal in two of the three online contests in one academic year. Prior success is not a qualification.
• The application period is from May 1 to May 31.
• Awards will be announced on June 15 and also at the NJCL convention during the summer for those students who will be in attendance. Winners be notified via email and listed online.
• Every age group will be provided an equal opportunity to be awarded either cash or a book/material award. For each age group there will be two $500 cash awards and three $250 awards to purchase TMRC materials.
• There are three age groups: 8th grade and below, 9th and 10th, and 11th and 12th.
• There are no restrictions on the application process other than earning two gold medals.
• The application is posted online and is submitted digitally.
• The NJCL scholarship committee will determine the winners.
