To apply, you must be a high school senior or graduate or current college undergrad who plans to enroll in a part-time or full-time firefighter, law enforcement or emergency medical (parademic or EMT) program at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school in the United States for the entire upcoming academic year and plan to pursue a career as a first responder - i.e. a firefighter, police officer, paramedic or emergency medical technician.
