Summary | The Scholars | Enrichment Program | The Selection Process | Events for Scholars | For Counselors Participating Schools | Current Regions | FAQ Eligible secondary schools may nominate one student per year from the senior class to be a Jefferson Scholar. Most commonly, nominees participate in a regional competition with nominees from other local schools. A separate competition permits a review of all students, including international applicants to U.Va. and Nursing School applicants, attending schools not eligible to participate in the regional competitions.
