The Student Trooper Program is designed to give an opportunity to understand what jobs in law enforcement look like, what's involved in our training, and to expose those interested to the everyday demands that a career in law enforcement entails.

Applicants must be of good moral character and present a well-groomed appearance with hair neatly trimmed (females-arranged) and males must be clean shaven in accordance with policies of the State Police Academy.
