Brandon Sanchez, class of 2012, has been awarded the NROTC Scholarship. He will receive between $180,000-$200,000 for the college or university of his choice.
Brandon was selected from a pool of 155 applicants in the state of Arizona and is ranked as the number 1 candidate by the U.S. Marine Corps.
Though the NROTC scholarship covers many expenses, including tuition, books, fees, uniforms and living expenses, the benefits of selection into the program extend much further than educational funding and financial assistance. For those with both the desire and ability to begin a journey filled with honor, courage and commitment, becoming a Marine-Option Midshipman represents a unique opportunity to find direction, purpose and, most importantly, your place among the few as an Officer of Marines.

Brandon’s top three school choices currently are: 1) Embry-Riddle Aeronatical University, 2) Stevens Institute Of Technology and 3) ASU.

Brandon, what can I say?! Being your school counselor since your freshman year has been great! You have evolved into such a fine young man deserving of such an honor and opportunity to make your dreams come true. May God bless you and protect you in your endeavors. You are one of those students who makes us proud to be called Pueblo Warriors.
Thank you all so much. Never have I been more excited in my life to achieve something of this honor. Every day I find myself approaching my dreams and every one of you have contributed so much to it. I hope that after learning the exemplary characteristics you have taught throughout my years can be reflected in whatever endeavors lay ahead on my path. I hope I can live up to your expectations. Thank you again. Once a warrior, always a warrior;)
