We had to apply for it through our school, and were only successful after we convinced the athletics/administration that we put in as much work and dedication, if not more, than any varsity sports team. As for the actual process, we just shot an email to the principal and copied the athletic director, and they told us what we needed to do. We also had to demonstrate that we had requirements for participants that parallel those of varsity sports- GPA requirements, attendance, etc. and send that document to the administration. We were finally granted varsity letters this past fall and we only award them on the FRC level.
