Robeson Community College

Sponsorship Letter

To be considered for a letter of sponsorship, students must complete a City of Whiteville application and provide three (3) character references before the letter is issued, the Whiteville Police Department must receive confirmation from the community college's BLET Program Director that the student has completed the enrollment process and will be attending an upcoming BLET course.

The sponsorship does not constitute a guarantee of employment upon completion of the BLET course, nor does it relieve the student of their financial obligations for books, fees, uniforms, etc.

Recruit Officer Program

To be considered for the Recruit Officer Program, the candidate must complete a City of Whiteville application along with a completed Form F-3. Once the documents have been received an abbreviated background will be completed prior to the selection as a Recruit Officer. The Whiteville Police Department must receive confirmation from the community college's BLET Program Director that the student has completed the enrollment process and will be attending an upcoming BLET course.

If you are interested in either of these programs and want more information regarding the Recruit Officer or BLET sponsorship, please contact the Whiteville Police Department in person.
