Endowed scholarships may be paid, at the donor s discretion, all at once or in increments over three years. They must be fully funded within three years maximum. Most definitely donors can define the qualifications for the recipients scholarship. This is called a restricted endowment and it is tailored to fit the donor s wishes. All qualified applicants are encouraged to apply.
Candidate selection is a very time and labor intensive.
As a service to our students and donors, our scholarship office is set up to manage and provide this benefit. In scholarships affected by the recent Washington Legislative Action I-200, a committee of foundation volunteers gathers to make those scholarship selections. The university scholarship office has a general scholarship application that lists all available scholarships. This is revised annually to include new scholarships as students start the application process in the winter for the upcoming fall quarter.
