SECTION III: TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

All of the terms and conditions that govern the receipt of a Teacher Quality Enhancement 

Program scholarship for the period noted on the cover of this document are spelled out in the 

complete scholarship agreement that you read and signed before your first term in the 

scholarship program. At that time, you were given an additional copy of them for your files. By 

signing this addendum, you acknowledge that you still understand the terms and conditions and 

still agree to abide by them. A copy of the complete terms and conditions of the scholarship 

agreement is available for your review before you sign this addendum. 

NOTE: Should you not meet your service obligation, the interest rate that applies to repayment 

of all scholarship support will be “the prevailing rate [established by the U.S. Treasury] at the 

time a repayment schedule is established.” If the terms and conditions of your initial 

scholarship agreement established a five percent rate of interest on the amount of scholarship 

you received for that term, you will be able to have the prevailing rate of interest at the time a 

repayment schedule is established apply to scholarship funds you received for that initial term if 

the prevailing rate of interest is lower than five percent. 

My signature certifies that I have read, understand, and agree to the terms and conditions 

of this scholarship agreement.

Privacy Act Notice

The Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) requires that the following notice be provided to you. The authority for 

collecting the requested information from and about you is Title II, Section 204(e) of the Higher Education Act of 

1965, as amended by the 1998 Higher Education Amendments, and 31 U.S.C. Chapter 37. We request your Social 

Security Number (SSN) under this authority in order to accurately track your records and to differentiate your 

teaching and financial obligation from other program participants who may have the same name as you. You are 

advised that your participation in the Teacher Quality Enhancement Grants scholarship program is voluntary and 

that giving us your SSN is voluntary, but you must provide the requested information, including your SSN, to 

participate. The information will be used to ensure that recipients of scholarships provided with funds under Title II 

of the Higher Education Act subsequently: (1) complete a teacher education program and teach in a high-need 

school of a high-need local educational agency for a period of time equivalent to the period for which the recipient 

received scholarship assistance; or (2) repay the amount of the scholarship. The information in your records may be 

disclosed to third parties as authorized under routine uses in the appropriate systems of records, either on a case-bycase basis, or, if the Department has complied with the computer matching requirements of the Privacy Act, under a 

computer matching agreement. 

The routine uses of this information include sending the information, in the event of litigation, to the Department of 

Justice (DOJ), a court, adjudicative body, counsel, party, or witness if the disclosure is relevant and necessary to the 

litigation. If this information, either alone or with other information, indicates a potential violation of law, we may

send it to the appropriate authority for action. We may also send this information to law enforcement agencies if the 

information is relevant to any enforcement, regulatory, investigative, or prosecutorial responsibility within the 

receiving entity’s jurisdiction. We may send information to the Department of Treasury and to credit agencies to 

verify the identity and location of the debtor and to the Department of Treasury, collection agencies, and employers 

of the scholarship recipient in order to service or collect on the debt. We may send information to members of 

Congress if you ask them to help you with questions related to this Program. In circumstances involving 

employment complaints, grievances, or disciplinary actions, we may disclose relevant records to adjudicate or 

investigate the issues. If provided for by a collective bargaining agreement, we may disclose records to a labor 

organization recognized under 5 U.S.C. Chapter 71. If necessary for the Department to obtain advice from the DOJ, 

we can disclose information to the DOJ. We may disclose information to the DOJ or the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) to help us determine whether the Freedom of Information Act requires the disclosure of particular 

records. We can disclose records to contractors if we contract with an entity to perform functions that require the 

disclosure of the records. Disclosures may also be made to qualified researchers under Privacy Act safeguards. 

Finally, disclosures may be made to OMB as necessary under the requirements of the Credit Reform Act. You must 

provide all of the information requested in order to have your request for tuition reimbursement processed.
