About Scholarship

The New Jersey Hall of Fame is proud to announce the renewal of the Arete Scholarship Fund. The Arete Scholarships will be awarded to a deserving male and female student graduating in 2025 from a New Jersey high school. Arete is a concept that Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle referred to more than 3,000 years ago that refers to the act of actualizing one's highest sense of self with a moral excellence of character. The term Arete essentially means that the individual should strive to pursue their passions in life, and realize their dreams regardless of their circumstances or the adversities that they are likely to face on the path to greatness. The recipients of the Arete scholarship are young people who demonstrate that sense of Jersey pride and that willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty. The successful applicants must demonstrate qualities such as academic engagement, moral character, and a commitment to their community. These recipients do not necessarily have to be at the very top of their school class from an academic standpoint, but should demonstrate a focus in school and life, and have a well thought out plan on how they intend to realize their highest sense of self: their Arete. Three letters of recommendation are required; they must be from a teacher, a coach or extracurricular activity moderator, and a community leader. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the New Jersey Hall of Fame for more information.
