The purpose of this MARADMIN is to announce the selection board 
results for the second half CY25 Defense Advanced Research Projects 
Agency (DARPA) Service Chiefs Fellowship Program (SCFP). The DARPA 
SCFP (DSCFP) convenes quarterly and lasts approximately 12 weeks.  
The purpose of the fellowship is to familiarize Marines with DARPA's
functions and efforts as the DOD's advanced Science and Technologies 
(S&T) organization in order to stimulate innovative improvements in 
the Corps, and to facilitate experimentation and transition of novel 
capabilities into the fleet.  Upon completion of their assignment to
the DSCFP, fellows serve as informal liaisons between DARPA and the 
services based on the close relationships developed during the 
program and an enhanced understanding of the DARPA technology 
development process. 2.  Selection to the second half CY25 DSCFP was
extraordinarily competitive with a large number of highly qualified 
applicants.  Considerations included program objectives, operational 
experience, academic background, MOS diversity, and current 
assignment.  Primary and alternate candidates are identified.  
Those not selected are encouraged to reapply in the future.  
Selectees should contact the listed MARADMIN POCs via email to 
confirm their availability.
