The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is now accepting applications for the Sheriff’s Office Integrity Scholarship academies. The recruitment period will remain open until further notice. If you fall into one of the following categories you may apply:



1. Not certified and meet the current Minimum Requirements for education or experience.
2. Florida certified in law enforcement but do not have two (2) years prior experience as a state, municipal or county law enforcement officer.
3. Attended and received certification through Florida Equivalency of training with prior military or federal law enforcement experience only.



For those selected, a full scholarship to a law enforcement academy and a $2,000 per month stipend will be provided. The Sheriff’s Office will provide all books, materials, and uniforms (excluding footwear and firearm). After graduation the scholarship recipient will be employed by the Sheriff's Office as a full time law enforcement deputy with a starting salary of $38,154.48 per year.

Not bad, I work next to them and make about $5,000 less a year when I get on my own.
