Each eligible student must submit his/her SAT or ACT scores and the NACST application by March 1 of his/her senior year in high school to his/her parent’s local NACST affiliate.

All candidates will be chosen by a Local Selection Committee appointed by the affiliate’s Executive Board. Local winners will receive a $1,000 scholarship from COACE payable to their college.
The applications of all local winners will then be forwarded to the National Office for consideration in the national competition.
