C-CAP Cooking Competition Awards Ceremony

C-CAP Scholarships are announced and awarded at your local C-CAP Cooking Competition Awards Ceremony. Please contact your local C-CAP Coordinator for dates, times, and locations.

How Scholarship Matches are Determined

Final competitors are matched with scholarship awards based on the following criteria:

• Applicant’s performance in the preliminary and final competitions
• Responses on the C-CAP Cooking Competition for Scholarships
• Application
• Applicant’s participation in C-CAP activities
• Applicant’s work experience
• Cumulative high school GPA
• Scholarship eligibility requirements (GPA requirements exist for select scholarships as determined by the donors)
• Final competition interview
• Applicant’s preferences as indicated in the competition application
• Need (as determined by the FAFSA Student Aid Report (SAR))

**Please note: Based on the above criteria, C-CAP may find students best suited for a scholarship to a school not listed as one of their preferences**
